So I was helping the non-hiking group get started this morning and I asked the crew off hand what their group name was. Clay shot back, "It's 'Team Super Awesome'!" Right away people started laughing and disagreeing, apparently they hadn't actually called themselves that yet. As I snapped a few pictures and then waved them off they were still chuckling about this.
Sometimes a group name just chooses a group and I wonder if they will all be calling themselves this when they return!
The non-hikers are an often misunderstood group. We ask all sophomores to go on the expedition even folks who have injuries or ailments, so we need to have a group that has different challenges than a traditional backpacking program. This group will be on Mayhew Island in Newfound lake and then do a two day canoeing expedition.
Challenges that fit the group and the same curriculum of activities, discussions, and reflections as the hiking groups make the two experiences very similar.
Good luck, Team Super Awesome!
