Collegebound at CSB/SJU
2021 trips are tentatively being planned.
We hope to offer the Collegebound outdoor orientation program this August. We are exploring options to make that happen in a covid-safe way. The program will likely have a number of changes to allow us to keep students and our communities safe while working towards the goals of Collegebound. Stay tuned to Outdoor U and Admissions for further information and updates into the spring. The earliest registration will open is May 1, 2021.
