Hear about the Outdoor Program's 2024 Trek in Nepal
Join us for an evening to remember and recap our service learning trip to Nepal! In the spring of 2024, the 91¶ÌÊÓƵ Outdoor Program partnered with the Apa Sherpa Foundation for the experience of a lifetime. Eight 91¶ÌÊÓƵ Students, three 91¶ÌÊÓƵ Faculty/Staff and four community members embarked on the iconic trek to Everest Base Camp, stopping in local villages along the way to participate in service projects and connect with the incredible people of Nepal.
At this keynote event, Outdoor Program staff and students will take you on a journey through the Himalaya and remark on the value of their experiences. This was truly a trip of a lifetime: to live amongst the beauty of the mountains, build friendships with our guides and our team from 91¶ÌÊÓƵ and feel the honor of trekking side by side with The Tiger of the Himalayas himself-Apa Sherpa. Apa has said, “The true beauty of Nepal isn’t the mountains, but the people who live in their shadow,” and we hope to represent them well in our presentation. The OP will proudly continue our partnership with the Apa Sherpa Foundation for more service learning trips to come - the next of these will be announced at OCF!
