North Carolina Outer Banks Sea Kayaking Challenge
You Won’t Want to
Go Home!
Imagine kayaking by day and camping on a white sandy beach at night. You might see a wild pony or a shooting star. You'll definitely soak in the salty sea breezes.
Picture It
The unique ecosystem of the Outer Banks is made up of ocean waters, sandy beaches, vital wetlands, maritime forests, and a series of sounds, estuaries, and salt marshes. The diverse environment gives life to all kinds of creatures, from raccoons and wild horses, to sea turtles, ghost crabs, and porpoise. After a day of kayaking and exploring, you'll camp on white sand beaches accompanied by swaying sea oats, laughing gulls, and the salty breeze.
Cook dinner on the beach while watching the sunset with your team of 6-12 other girls.
You'll learn many skills, including: paddling techniques, wet exit, self and group rescue, compass and chart reading, channel crossings, navigation, equipment maintenance, use of VHF radios, weather forecasting, expedition planning, reading currents and tides, "Leave No Trace" minimum-impact techniques, and environmental study.</P< p>

Oregon Whitewater Rafting
There's Nothing
Like It!
Take the paddles. This is your river trip of a lifetime.
Picture It
This exciting whitewater rafting course takes place on the wild and scenic section of the world-renowned Deschutes River in Oregon. You'll have the opportunity to get to know fellow Girl Scouts while navigating your raft through Class III & IV rapids. Once on the river, the only way out is to follow the river downstream to its end and its confluence with the mighty Columbia River. But don't fret. You'll learn everything you need to know during the first part of the course, when your instructors teach safety skills and how to navigate yourself down the river. The teaching progresses to include reading currents, anticipating obstacles, scouting difficult rapids, and mastering expeditionary river skills. Basic camp skills, Leave No Trace camping, and water navigation skills are also taught. Plus, if time permits, you may have a chance to try your hand (and arms and legs) at rock climbing! Don't let this adventure pass you by. Join 6–12 girls for a trip chock-full of stories to share when you return! Begins in Portland, OR.

Thousand Islands Canoeing Holiday Break Challenge
Have You Ever Seen
a Manatee?
Come see for yourself why Paddler Magazine recently rated Everglades National Park one of the top 10 places for canoeing.
Picture It
Share the water with dolphins, stingrays, manatees, phosphorescence, and fish that jump over the bow of your boat. Admire beautiful butterfly orchids, wading birds, and bald eagles. Have a chance to try out the following skills: paddling techniques, wet exit, self-rescue, compass and chart reading, navigation, equipment maintenance, use of VHF radios, weather forecasting, expedition planning, reading currents and tides, "Leave No Trace" minimum-impact techniques, and environmental study.
You'll be journeying with 6-12 other girls through the Ten Thousand Islands and the Everglades, a southern subtropical region. The Florida Peninsula is believed to be the last part of the continental United States to rise from the ocean, making it the youngest US region, geologically. The Everglades is a shallow, slow-moving sheet of water, which runs from Lake Okeechobee to the Gulf of Mexico. This "river of grass," which is 120 miles long, 50 miles wide, and less than a foot deep, once covered the entire tip of Florida—about 4 million acres.
