BAWT Discovery Sessions

Please RSVP below.

Discovery Sessions are informational and inspirational orientations to BAWT and our work to get at-risk youth into the wilderness. They are a great way to find out a bit more about what we do, get a tour of our gear room and find out how to get involved. BAWT staff, volunteers and youth workers who have participated in BAWT's programs will share their experiences and answer questions. Join us, bring your friends, and help us grow the BAWT community.

Volunteer Nights

Every month our community meets to reconnect, welcome new faces, and tackle important projects that get kids outdoors. Come help us get our gear ready to go outdoors with youth, help with spreading the word about BAWT through mailings and other marketing campaigns, and do other essential (and fun!) odd jobs with BAWT. Please join us and bring your friends! We count on volunteers like you to keep our programs strong and growing.
