To provide an opportunity for the campus community to experience
a variety of outdoor activities which are safe, fun; and help
participants learn and develop leadership, personal growth,
teamwork and effective group interaction skills. This experience
based learning allows for the development of character and personal
interaction skills needed to be effective daily in ones life.

The mission of the Outdoor Recreation Equipment Center at
Ithaca College is fostered through the vision of the campus
community developing an understanding of their relationship
with nature (environmental awareness and minimum impact travel)
and providing a challenging setting (skill development and personal
challenge) in which participants can develop a sense of community.
