Alpine
Summer Term (AST)
Jul 12 - Aug 9, 2009
Lenk, Switzerland
Spend your summer here learning to lead.
An
outdoor leadership
adventure, summer camp and cultural immersion in one institution, the
AST brings 30 high school students to a village in
Switzerland to engage with us and their peers in leadership learning,
community service, skills for life and college preparation.
For athletes, performers, adventurers, community servers, or any other
student who wants to lead in his or her own world.
Our
Vision...
An
innovative curriculm in an Alpine environment. Students mature as young
leaders -- developing confidence, learning to influence change, and
making lifelong friends.
What we
are...
A place where you will lead
peers on Alpine
overnights, rock climb and mountain bike, eat family style meals, cook
in
the backcountry, explore a new culture, travel on glaciers, and learn
to communicate effectively. You will return to
your academic and social environment at home with renewed perspectives
and
confidence, and anxious to lead your own teams.
No experience is required. We ask only for
curiosity and
sense of adventure!
