Program Philosophy
This summer the Berkeley Boosters have
planned five very exciting Adventure Camps for Berkeley youth.
Our OUTDOOR EDUCATION PROGRAM has organized camps for the last
19 years. We maintain a low student to counselor ratio and
provide a supportive atmosphere. Our curriculum includes not
only outdoor skills and environmental awareness, but also
important life skills such as self-esteem, problem- solving,
celebrating diversity, and the peaceful and positive
resolution of conflict.
The emotional as well as physical
safety and well-being of the participants is always foremost
in our minds. Our Adventure Camps provide experiences and
create memories for a lifetime.
Our Staff
Our staff are experienced, sensitive
and
well trained including
Wilderness First Responder, CPR and
First Aid and licensed to drive commercial vehicles.
Our Mission
We will provide innovative programs
aimed at young people and their families with the goal of
educating them to become productive members of our
multi-ethnic society.
Program Goals
Provide challenging, recreational, and
educational outdoor activities for youth ages 10-17 for the
development of their self-confidence and self-esteem, and an
appreciation for the great outdoors.
