Women's Expeditions

In its fifth year, Women’s Expeditions is an exciting program aimed at empowering women to become leaders through outdoor experiences. Women’s Expeditions seeks to challenge women mentally and physically by taking risks and testing their limits in the great outdoors. At the end of each Expedition, participants are encouraged to apply what they learned to their personal and professional lives. 

Past Expeditions include:

• Hiking and Orienteering at the Black Hills
• Camping 101 at the North Shore
•  Dogsledding at Camp Menogyn
•  Rock Climbing at Vertical Endeavors 

To participate in an Expedition, give ideas for locations/topics, or to volunteer for a project, contact the institute at iwl@csbsju.edu.
