Get Outside! Our Adventure Programs create opportunities for learning about nature, leadership, team development, and personal and professional growth. The programs are designed to help participants develop skills and understanding through experiential education in outdoor settings. Our adventures challenge paticipants to step beyond their personal boundaries and self-imposed limitations to broaden their understanding of themselves and the natural world.
At Camp Akita we offer a wide variety of team building programs and events to suite the needs of your group. All of our team building programs are designed to reward group cooperation and are focused on participants having fun with each other outside of their daily environment.
The guidelines for outdoor education are rooted in the Ohio Department of Education Standards and compliment school curriculum. Activities emphasize the development of student perceptions, sensitivities, and awareness of the natural environment. The classes are designed to build positive relationships between students and build a basic understanding of ecological principles.
Camp Akita offers the best and most comprehensive Wilderness Medicine courses in the world! We offer relevant and realistic wilderness first-aid training for medical professionals, seasonal outdoor activities or short term wilderness endeavors and pursuits. These course are taught by professional instructors from Wilderness Medical Associates.
