Outward Bound

**el_jefe** · 08-05-2008, 11:32 AM

Outward Bound, an international non-profit outdoor education program, is
offering fully funded outdoor adventure excursions to all OEF/OIF veterans.
It doesn't matter what your current military status is (active, inactive,
discharged, retired) - you're eligible to attend as long as you deployed in
support of OEF/OIF combat operations while in the military.

These five-day excursions offer adventure activities such as backpacking,
rock climbing, canyoneering, canoeing, and dog sledding in beautiful
wilderness areas in Maine, Texas, Colorado, California, and Minnesota.
Scheduled courses from Sep 08-Feb 09 are listed below, and future courses
will be scheduled soon. All expedition costs for lodging, equipment, food,
and instruction are completely funded by a multi-million dollar Sierra Club
grant, including the participants' round-trip transportation between home and
the wilderness site. The excursion is offered at no cost to the participant.

To sign up for one of the prescheduled courses, please contact Doug Hayward
at 1-866-669-2362, ext. 8387, or simply e-mail him at obvets@outwardbound.org
