For many teachers, launching and sustaining an Outdoor Club requires persistence and self-promotion. Despite the well-documented benefits of outdoor recreation for students and communities, getting financial support from schools remains a struggle. Teens to Trails is here to help.

Teens to Trails announces their 2024 grant winners. Twenty-two Maine Middle and High Schools, will be awarded funds for their Outdoor Clubs. The grants, which are used for teacher stipends, safety and skills training, and student trips outside, are made possible by L.L.Bean.
