testimonials

"Kayaking on the lake was one thing, but faced with Clear Creek, Harper expressed concern. Was it dangerous? What if he flipped? He went into his day cautiously and, with a hug from mom, entrusted himself to his Avid4 instructors. After some discussion with the team, and leaning on the Challenge by Choice teaching model, Harper decided to kayak down all three river drops and come out TRIUMPHANT! It's beyond words to express the joy of seeing someone grow larger than their fears. We appreciate the Avid4 team so much. See you next summer!"
