According to the Trekkers Web site (www.trekkersonline.com),
the group is "an outdoor-based mentoring program that
connects caring adults with young people through expeditionary
learning, community service and adventure-based education.
With community adult volunteers working throughout the year,
Trekkers provides a myriad of educational, experiential,
and cross-cultural opportunities for young people, with an
emphasis on relationship building and an appreciation of
the earth as 'educator.'"
The Trekkers program began in 1994 as a volunteer community
initiative for students living in Thomaston. In 1996,
students from two other surrounding communities were
included. Trekkers now offers programs to local students
from seventh to 12th grades and officially became a
nonprofit organization in 2000 and currently serves
more than 150 students during its program year.
