Thrive Outdoors

Wooohoooo!!!

BIG Adventures, a new program by BBBSNH, is excited to announce a partnership with Thrive Outdoors!

Their Mission is simple: "We will use the readily available tools around us, and within us, to help people become more positive-minded, optimistic, and less stressed."

Thrive Outdoors vision is to offer sustainable programming to all. "We will treat our employees, students, partner agencies, and the earth with respect and dignity, and set a positive example of caring, stewardship, and self-worth for generations to come."

Welcome to the BBBS Village! 💚

Attention, update for this week!

We will be closed 7/11 and 7/12, but back for more summer fun next week!

Lessons from the not-so-distant past.

Lessons from the core of our programs.

We're built to work together.

We are designed for community.

Summer has begun for most of NH and The Community Leadership Center is gearing up for a fantastic couple of months right here in downtown Manchester.

Bring your kids as often as you'd like, no need to block out an entire week at a time. We're giving families flexibility while giving kids an opportunity to build their own style of camp.

We've got something for every interest!

Does your child love crafts? We are arts and crafts heaven. 🎨
How about Nerf and crazy interactive games? Bring it on! 🤸
Cooking and culinary creativity? Yes, no reservation required! 😉
Water fun, wilderness survival tools, and out-of-the-box adventures? 💯

From escape rooms to scavenger hunts - we've got a little bit of everything to suit every personality!

For details, follow The Community Leadership Center page, or just check out the link and drop in any of our Camp Days, M-F 9AM-5PM to join in the fun.

(Discounted rate of $30/child for children who arrive after 12 or leave before 1.)

If you haven't already, follow our sister company, East Coast Evolution Leadership. We're doing big things, between managing the 39 Beech Shelter and Engagement Center, to running innovative team builders indoors and outdoors.

Today, we're heading to the trees with the Betty J Barry Breast Cancer retreat at the Barbara C. Harris Camp & Conference Center.

We're doing something a little different this summer - kids' programming that doesn't require any weeklong commitments!

Sign up for as many or as few days (or weeks) as you'd like, and/or have your kids join in on any of the one-off trips we take, regardless of how many times they come to the CLC.

Our campers had a GREAT farm overnight Wednesday into Thursday! Thanks so much to Rachel and her family for offering their yurt & farm hospitality!

Chopped has become a staple of Foodie Fridays at camp. 😆😋

It's been a crazy summer here at Thrive Outdoors! Yesterday, Rachel, Lila, Miles, and Toby got their hands dirty with campers making tie-dye, and they're doing another round of Chopped today for Foodie Friday.

Meanwhile, Jake and Melanie had a great overnight with MPAL out in Greenfield doing some campfire cooking, swimming, and maybe a little sleeping. But, only very little. 😴😆

Glimpses from our camp trip to the beach & doing the camp cheer in our new Natural Disaster room!

We have an immediate need for an adult camp worker to help out our already awesome camp counselors next week. Full or part time.

There's a reason Mindset (and remaining positive) is the first pillar of our Big Five. 😉

"Those who face challenges with a positive outlook and are able to manage their emotions are already well on their way toward longevity.”

People who live longest share these 2 traits, say authors who studied Japanese 'secret' for 'a long and happy life' "Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life," highlights the practices of some of the longest-lived people. Here are two things they have in common.

A great day in the woods with Founder's Academy!

Nerf will be on hiatus as the CLC is under renovation.

BUT - that means it'll be all the better, bigger, and more epic when we start back up!

Stay tuned for details!

Nerf Wars at 190 Elm St tonight! 6-8!
