Adventure Journal

Created for Adventure is an amazing group of inspiring and supportive leaders who made my trip to the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone National Parks unforgettable. Even though the trip lasted only six days, I felt a genuine connection with the entire team, especially my trip leader, James, who made the experience even more memorable!

We have such an incredible staff that lead our Created for Adventure trips every summer. Just a few weeks ago, we received an email (included below) from a family who met one of our staff members, Isaac in Alaska last summer. 

They were hoping to get Isaac’s address to send him a thank you letter. The family apparently camped right next to our group, and the father shared that Isaac made “quite an impression” on their little boy. 

Going into my trip to Kauai, I had really high expectations of what Hawaii would be like. Social media has always made the islands look so beautiful, but I didn't know if it would be everything people have said it was. It honestly was even more breathtaking than I could ever have imagined!

We interviewed alumni camper JD Lamond to find out what it was like to transition from being a camper to working as a staff member on a Created for Adventure trip! Continue reading to find out if he would recommend other alumni campers to experience serving on staff.

Which Created for Adventure trip did you go on as a camper?
