Parents of middle schoolers do not need to be reminded that these years are some of the most challenging years for parents and students alike. There are a lot of changes happening for preteens as they grow and mature but still retain much of their childhood imagination and impulses. They are also often changing schools, using lockers, and in many cases changing classes for the first time in their lives.

There is a lot to celebrate during the middle school years as well. Your kids are beginning to make their faith their own, mature in their abilities, excel in sports and fine arts, and make lifelong friends. They are beginning to ask questions about the world in which they live. This stage is the perfect time for your child to start traveling and seeing God’s creation. 

Faith-Based Middle School Travel Programs 

Can you imagine your middle schooler traveling? Can you imagine your child  being amazed by wildlife, towering mountains, and the breathtaking beauty of the Grand Tetons? Created for Adventure provides opportunities for teens thirteen to eighteen years old to experience adventure with new friends.

Most of our trips are designed for high school students; however, our Grand Tetons Adventure is all about rising eighth and ninth graders!

Teton Trailblazer - Middle School Adventure Trip

This seven-day journey is a fantastic introduction to adventure travel. We'll explore the Grand Teton National Park and take some amazing hikes to mountains, lakes, and waterfalls on this adventurous journey. 

After going on a horseback ride and soaking in the beauty of the Tetons, your middle schoolers will experience whitewater rafting down the Snake River. Their incredible journey will come to a conclusion with an entertaining rodeo in Jackson Hole!

What Your Middle Schoolers Should Expect on their Adventure Trip

At a designated group campsite in Grand Teton National Park, our team will pitch tents and enjoy evenings by the fire. They will have the opportunity to learn technical skills like backcountry cooking, navigation, animal safety, and more. This adventure includes:

Teenagers and preteens need to get outside now more than ever. They need to have adventures and disconnect from the everyday distractions of technology and social media. Created for Adventure offers faith-based adventure excursions that include time set aside each day for morning devotionals and small groups in addition to fun and exciting experiences.

Teenagers and preteens who go on our trips will have an adventure of a lifetime and return home with a greater comprehension of God's love for them and a greater appreciation for the natural world.
