Who Are We?
Steve Waterman, Director of OAC
Years of teaching and parenthood has allowed me to experience firsthand the value of outdoor adventure activities for both kids and adults. Born and raised in Florida (Yes, one of the few!), I have had the pleasure of enjoying surfing, kayaking, paddle boarding, mountain biking, hiking, camping, and more in our great outdoors. It's important now more than ever to spread the joys and adventures of the outdoors to the next generation!

The Crew!
Over the years our former campers have returned as Junior Counselors, and are favorites of all our campers!
