“Get Connected” Program Coordinator
“Lafayette College has been associated with Lord Stirling School Outdoor Education Center for three years, our experience with their Leadership Training and program organization has been superior. Our students took away from their experience new friends, new skills and new confidence about making a smooth transition into the college environment. I have never been more confident about the fluency of our First year Student Outdoor Adventure Program nor the welfare of our participants.”

Recreation Director
“I learned a great deal about outdoor skills and my own strengths and weaknesses. Most importantly, I learned how to teach the group that the environment and their actions as a group determine the situations and outcomes that the groups found themselves in. Also, I learned that youth can be encouraged more strongly to push past their fears, exhaustion and frustration to reach a goal. Many, many thanks! This was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve had personally and professionally.”

“This was the first Experiential Training course I’ve ever had. I enjoyed the presentation very much. Fear of heights was my problem and the patience of the instructor helped me work through it.”
