With People Who Understand

This summer, Power To Be hosted families from Starlight Children's Foundation for two overnight camping trips at our Prospect Lake home. Each spanning three days and two nights, these trips brought together families who have experienced serious childhood illnesses, to rest, connect, try new activities, and discover the freedom and joy that can come from time spent in nature. 

Wilderness School Cohort 17

It’s difficult to grasp just how much these youth have grown over the course of their program. Having embarked on three expeditions this year alone, Cohort 17 has experienced constant growth; through severe and changing weather conditions, disrupted plans and routes, and unfamiliar settings and dynamics, this group has showcased their leadership and outdoor skills, and developed strong social and emotional skills and confidence.

A Dream Realized on Botanical Beach

Last fall, during a walk on a Power To Be program, a participant shared a dream: to visit Botanical Beach. They had heard stories from friends about its beauty but had been told it wasn't a place they would be able to go. Power To Be staff responded with a simple “Not true.”, and an idea was born.

Every bid helps break down barriers and create inclusive outdoor experiences for people of all ages, abilities, and circumstances.
