Projects
At New Treks, we understand that not all of our students will continue recreating or working in the outdoors after our class. With that in mind, we incorporate relatable projects with some of our topics. These projects take what students learn about the outdoors and translate their new knowledge into ideas that better their communities, themselves, and even help them realize new possibilities. Below are examples of these projects, which the students present to build confidence, practice public speaking, and solidify understanding.
Leave No Trace
The Leave No Trace Project has students relate Leave No Trace principles it to their home environment. They create principles, initiatives, and ways to better their communities. LNT helps outdoor enthusiasts respectfully recreate on highly impacted public lands. Our students take that idea and apply it to their local communities.

Passion Project
Our staff at New Treks have a love for the outdoors. We encourage our students to find their own passions through our Passion Project. Students pick a cause they care about, a favorite hobby, or something they want to see changed and research how they can turn it into a way of life. Whether it is a volunteer effort, a future business idea, or political change, these projects help student develop and cultivate their dreams to make them a reality.
Dream Vacation
In several of our units, students learn how to create trip itineraries. This includes route planning, food and water considerations, gear and clothing needs, and more. The Dream Vacation Project has students take those skills and apply them to a vacation of their choice. Students create a complete itinerary that includes travel logistics, transportation considerations, accommodations, food, and activities. They create a budget for the trip and research ways to make it more affordable. We hope that one day, some of our students will get to go on these vacations!
