Frequently Asked Questions

Is lunch included?

What if the dates we are available are not being offered for Youth Adventure Days, but we really would like to take part? Is there a solution?

Yes, there is a solution! If the scheduled dates do not align with your availability, you can contact our Summer Programs Coordinator, Kolya Schubert, at kschubert@mtashland.com to discuss custom programming options.
