SUMMER 2024: WHAT AN ADVENTURE!
We had an absolute blast this summer exploring D.C.'s green spaces and waterways with your Squad members. Over 300 students joined us for outdoor learning adventures during our week-long programs, as well as during partnerships with Capital City PCS, National Presbyterian School, Peace Camp, and the Smithsonian Anacostia Community Museum's Environmental Justice Academy.
Thanks to critical support from donors, Urban Adventure Squad provided over $19,000 in scholarships for our full-day, weeklong summer programs.
