Cold temperatures, grey skies and unpredictable weather are hallmarks of winter, and while the instinct might be to stay indoors, getting outside can offer a wide range of benefits for young people.
“Nature is an incredible environment for learning and self-discovery that helped me build a pathway towards success,” said TV’s Survivorman Les Stroud, an outdoor expert and Scouts Canada’s newly appointed Chief Scout. “Getting outside and experiencing adventure helps kids develop valuable skills to navigate many of life’s challenges. Plus, it’s a lot of fun.”
