Wilderness Skills & Trips.
Making use of our natural areas, Sea-Gull offers
a complete initiatives program. Low ropes course, rock climbing
and a challenge wall are used to help girls develop strength, confidence
and team spirit. Wilderness skills such as map and compass, shelter
building, back-country first aid and minimal impact camping are
taught to ensure that campers are well-prepared for off-site trips.
Our location near beautiful lakes, trails and
rivers enables us to expose our girls to the excitement of wilderness
travel. All campers participate in supervised, age-appropriate trips.
These may include: day hikes along beautiful
trails near Lake Michigan, day trips to the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes
or Mackinac Island, overnight camp-outs at some of Michigan's most
beautiful campgrounds, sailing trips on Lake Charleviox, sports
road trips, or four-days of hiking or canoeing in the Canadian wilderness.
CITs can choose one of our extended trips such
as canoeing in Lake Superior Provincial Park, or sea-kayaking at
Beaver Island. Sea-Gull provides backpacks, tents, dry bags, and
all cooking equipment.
