Description

LEAP Campers Having Fun in the Valle!

THE thing to do this summer for students entering grades 7 and 8!

This summer we will let our curiosity be our guide as we explore the diverse ecosystems of the Pajarito Plateau and surrounding areas. During our weeklong adventure, we will make new friends while exploring the archeology, geology, ecology, and wildlife from the Rio Grande Valley to the Jemez Mountains and beyond! We will also learn about some of the numerous opportunities for outdoor recreation and discuss our responsibility to protect our environment, as well as its inhabitants. 

Kids Exploring at LEAP

 

We plan to go hiking, caving, and more. We will even camp out one night! During the overnight, we will play outdoor games, look at the stars, cook, work together to set up camp, and get to know each other as only can happen in the outdoors. Our journey will culminate with an exciting rafting trip through spectacular rock formations and canyons. Join us during this exciting week as we explore the beautiful wilderness we call home!

LEAP Fun on the Rio Grande!

 

LEAP is for students entering grades 7-8. We will meet daily in the morning at PEEC, and students will be picked up in the late afternoon. Exact times will be announced as the program dates approach. LEAP 2016 will be taught by environmental educators Tony Hinojosa and Beth Cortright.
