Voyages

Voyages are a mandatory and unique component of the REMS adventure education curriculum. Adventure education promotes learning through venturesome experiences. Students participate in overnight voyages to gain the highest degree of learning the Colorado great outdoors can offer, learn new adventure and team building skills (rock climbing, ropes courses, navigation, snowshoeing, and much more) and build character and crew. The voyage experiences progress annually: kindergartners begin with basic outdoor navigation skills on day trips before their first overnight adventure, while sixth graders embark on multi-day backpacking trips to confront personal and group challenges in the wilderness. Through voyages, our students discover a stronger sense of self and develop stronger crew and community.
