The Boojum Institute for Experiential Education: Outdoor Education and Challenge Course Programs Throughout California and the Southwest
Description edit
The Boojum Institute for Experiential Education offers outdoor programs that provide the opportunity for personal growth and environmental education in a variety of wilderness settings. Participants on Boojum programs are challenged to develop personal skills in leadership, communication, team building and self confidence through facilitated adventure experiences. The environmental education component of Boojum programs explores natural history through hands-on investigation allowing the participant to develop a relationship with the environment and providing insight into the role humans play when interacting with the natural world. The Institute is dedicated to personal and organizational development through unlocking potential, promoting self-discovery and inspiring growth.
Since its founding in 1975, over 45,000 youth and young adults have participated in its base camp, rock climbing, challenge course (ropes course), canoe and backpack programs in locations such as Joshua Tree National Park, Idyllwild, Point Reyes National Seashore, Yosemite National Park, Colorado River and Lake Mead, Baja California and the Sierra Nevada, San Bernardino, Santa Cruz and San Jacinto Mountains.
Boojum has long been regarded as a leader in the field of experiential education. The Institute was one of the first organizations on the West Coast to develop wilderness based human development programs specifically for youth. In 1997 Boojum was accredited by the Association for Experiential Education, an international professional association of over 2000 members in 20 countries. Boojum was one of the first twelve organizations in the world to achieve this distinction.
