DISCOVERY
For our youngest campers, your outtrip is coming to camp! For most of you, it's the first time you will be away from home for more than one night and your first adventure without mom and dad.

QUEST
Outtripping is about pushing your limits and going out of your comfort zone. Many of you are first-time campers so coming to camp and sharing your bedroom for the first time (with 5 other people!!) can be the step out of your comfort zone.

There are lots of opportunities for exploring creation and working with your cabin group, learning through challenge, discussion, teamwork and outdoor skills.

Breakaway
A night under the stars listening to the rustling breeze, chirping crickets and the gentle sound of...your cabinmate snoring next to you! Ohh, the delights of an overnight in the great outdoors at Pioneer Lodge! Plus, you'll enjoy exploring the land, eating some delicious treats and perhaps even the glorious colors of an Alberta sunrise!

Plunge
A typical outtrip experience at Plunge is hard to describe since every year the Plunge Program Team hatches a new plan! You may encounter a wide open field, a three-legged race, a bowl of ice cream or a mountain peak on your Plunge outtrip. But whatever the adventure might be, it's sure to include plenty of laughter and challenge. Just be sure to save some energy for all the stories you'll be telling afterwards!
