Avid4 Adventure states that it does everything in its power to keep kids safe but does not “pack them up in bubble wrap,” and that it gives kids knowledge and confidence to take calculated, well-communicated risks.
Parent testimonials describe Avid4 Adventure as a favorite camp where a child learned to ride a bike without training wheels and discovered new favorite activities like stand up paddle boarding, kayaking, and biking. Other parents describe mature, responsible staff who are excited to share their passion with kids and call it a well-run program where kids learn new outdoor skills. Additional feedback notes that kids were active every day, still talked about camp more than a month later, and were eager to return the next year.
