Values: It Boils Down to This
Passionate
We love what we do! We want you to love being in nature too. Through our canoe trips, we strive to help you appreciate the importance that time spent in nature has on our wellbeing. We will be enthusiastic, encouraging, compassionate, open minded, team players, leaders and hopefully - inspiring.
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Dignity
We embrace all our differences as individuals, and we aspire to create an environment where you feel like you can be you, where you feel valued and a part of our team.
Creating Community
Through our canoe trips, we seek to forge new friendships and create a community of people who share a passion for adventure and the outdoors. The benefits of being part of a positive community on our wellbeing and longevity are profound. After paddling with us, we’ll encourage you to stay connected with Challenge The Wild alumni through regular get togethers in nature.
Care for the Planet
Earth is our collective home. Much like you would do anything to protect your home we feel the same way about our planet. On every trip we collect trash where we find it and we will ask you to do the same. We educate our canoeists on the importance of environmental conservation and we donate $10 from every trip to North Carolina State Parks.
