“There is more in you than you think”. This simple idea forms the basis of Outward Bound’s philosophy and provides the guiding principle for all Outward Bound experiences. Each Outward Bound course is much more than just learning the technical skills of canoeing, rock climbing, kayaking, backpacking and dogsledding. It’s designed to be an incredible and indelible journey of self-discovery.

In summer of 2019, The Wilson Battlefords Initiative funded 48 summer scholarships for grade 9-11 students from John Paul II Collegiate, North Battleford Comprehensive High School, and Sakewew High School.

“There is more to us than we know. If we can be made to see it, perhaps for the rest of our lives we will be unwilling to settle for less.”
