Teens Take to the Mountains

 Uncategorized


Philip Kolling, Everett Clubhouse Director, took a group of teens rock climbing through a newly established partnership with Metro Rock climbing gym. Out of the 6 participants 4 passed their belay test and will act as leaders for the rest of the summer. The Rock Climbing program and collaboration is being piloted as a diversion tactic for court involved youth. Teens, also took a field trip to Lake Pokapog to hike and canoe, an Everett Clubhouse collaboration with the Appalaichain Mountain Club's Youth Opportunities Program (YOP). On the field trip, teens learned how to do T rescues with a few other Boston Area youth organizations.
