Some of you may have heard of Outward Bound, an organization that hosts wilderness adventures for everyone from kids to adults. They now offer a veteran program, with courses offered at various base camps from Maine to California. Best of all, they recently received a grant to pay for 1,500 transitioning veterans' airfare to the camps and equipment! The link (MileHighNews.com) demonstrates the connections the veterans are able to re-establish with one another, while making new connections with the civilians who run the programs. More of both kinds of connections are always needed and this is a one-of-a-kind way to make them.
