Outdoor Guides
Guides in ETC's three outdoor programs
are trained in wilderness skills, leadership, environmental education,
disability & diversity awareness, and first aid/CPR. ETC guides
are full of compassion and fun. That's what inspires ETC's participant
groups to return year after year - as well as ETC guides to return
trip after trip! Volunteer guides commit to guiding at least four
trips per year, but some do more than twenty! Training for new guides
is usually conducted once a year, prior to the beginning of each
program's season. Skills practice days and fun paddle trips are
regularly scheduled to help guides improve their skills and stay
in touch.
For information on becoming a guide, contact the program managers
for the winter, sea kayaking, or whitewater rafting programs. Download
