We focus on small group, wilderness canoeing, backpacking, and rock climbing trips that are safe, fun, enriching and transformational. Our campers participate in the total life of Menogyn – to work, play and live together. We nurture character development in our campers by teaching and emulating the Y values of Caring, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility.
