Richard Louv Mini Grants Program

BAWT is honored to announce the launch of The Richard Louv Mini Grants Program. We will be offering 20 grants in the amount of $250 to youth organizations to cover the cost of taking outdoor trips with the youth that they serve.

A portion of these grants will be reserved for youth workers taking kids on outdoor adventures for the first time.

Check out the program here.

Nutrition tip: How to stay warm at night during a trip.

It’s still winter and nights can be pretty chilling in the mountains. Whatever you’re doing, here is a regimen to stay warm.

>> Carbohydrates in the morning (bagel or oatmeal will do)

>>Simple sugars and carbs while hiking (like trail mix with dry fruits, energy bars, granola), they are easier for your body to process

>>Fatty foods and proteins for diner (stew, meat, nuts, mac 'n' cheese). They do a great job replacing the energy used during the day and keep you toasty all night!

Thanks to Clifford Agocs, Development Associate and CFK Coordinator
