I've been into adventure educaiton for quite sometime. I have finally been given a small break to try it out.
Has anyone used this or done this before?
What are your thoughts about it?
If you need to take a look at it you can do a google search for project adventure or adventure education...
I love it and think it is something to really get into and that it might be benificial for ADDers....
Let me know what you think! Any ideas or input is greatly appreciated!

I think adventure education is an awesome idea for adders! You may want to open an eco-tourism business if you enjoy it so much. Eco-tourism in Alberta is a big business because of the tourists we get in the Rockey mountains. To find the education you need try looking at colleges that offer eco-tourism, outdoor pursuits ( Phyiscal education degree). There some colleges in Alberta Canada that offer eco-tourism courses, or the Canadian universities such as University of Calgary, University of Alberta, or any of the public colleges in Alberta. The outdoor pursuits programs are very strong in Canada. I feel eco-toursim would be the best way to go because you can have your own business. Adders like to be entrepreuners instead of working for others. Trust me! I have been in recreation for 15 years in Aquatics and have considered my own business to give private lessons or Lifeguard training. Let me know how it goes on your search!

I am currently working with a group of adventure educators...I love it...lets us think outside the box.
Tell me more about this eco-tourism stuff...
I'm definately not looking into being a tour guide...
