Spring OA Leader Training is Starting
-
Do you enjoy the outdoors?
-
Did you have a great time of your Frosh Trip?
-
Are you interested in helping incoming Frosh have a great first experience at Princeton?
Don't miss out on your opportunity to join the largest leadership program on campus! Spring Leader Training is starting up soon and with the huge interest we had in the fall we expect to be very full this spring. Sign up early and guarantee your space. We are looking for motivated students, graduate students and faculty or staff to become leaders for the Frosh Trip next September. Don’t consider yourself outdoorsy? Outdoor Action will teach you the skills you need to be competent in the outdoors. Our priorities are to find people who are excited about working with others and learning and teaching new skills, and who can bring a wide variety of experiences and backgrounds to the program. The Outdoor Action Leader Training program is recognized across the country as one of the most comprehensive college outdoor leadership programs. If you complete all of the requirements this year, you are eligible to apply to lead a Frosh Trip in the fall.

Support the OA Climbing Program through the Joe Palmer ’84 Memorial FundFor the first twenty-five years of the OA Climbing Wall, students paid to use the facility in order to offset the costs of equipment and to cover the wages of the student Climbing Wall Staff. During the spring of 2008 we received a one-time grant through Janet Dickerson, Vice President for Campus Life, to allow the Wall to be free for all students. Thanks to that support the number of students using the Wall doubled in one semester and we continue to operate the Wall free for undergraduates and graduate students. Joe Palmer ’84 was one of the keystones of OA’s climbing program in the eighties and helped to build the first climbing wall in 1983. He died in a climbing accident in Yosemite in 1985. A number Joe’s friends in the Class of ’84 and Joe’s family have instituted a special fund in memory of Joe to support the climbing program at Princeton. Our long term goal is to build an endowed fund in Joe’s name to generate $25,000 in annual funds to ensure that this wonderful resource remains free to all students and to support new initiatives like Peak Potential Princeton. Please visit the new Wall on your next trip to campus and watch for our special Wall events at Alumni Day and Reunions. For more information and photos of the new Wall go to www.princeton.edu/~oa/climb and for information on how to make a donation to the Joe Palmer ’84 Fund contact OA Director, Rick Curtis (rcurtis at princeton or Laurie Russen in the Development Office (lrussen at princeton) |
