Trips can last for a couple of hours to an entire day, depending on the activity. All trips are "weather dependent." If you are interested in a program, it is always best to sign up early as some dates or trips sell out while others don't "make" because not enough individuals sign up in a timely fashion. Appropriate documentation (I.D. cards, signed forms, full payment) is required.

Specific trip information sheets are prepared and are made available before each activity.
To sign-up for one of our Outdoor Education trips, please come to the Department of Recreation Services Main Office, located in room 241 Archbold Gym.

For more information, please call 315-443-4386 (4FUN) or e-mail me at sacatucc@syr.edu

See you in the outdoors!
