Katie Wolpert is working part-time at Experience Learning, formerly The Mountain Institute, where we hold the Trilogy. She has revived the idea of a running camp that we were partner to in 2008 but did it not get off the ground. This one week camp takes a different approach in that it incorporates running into the traditional outdoor education camps they do so well rather than focusing 100% on running. The camp geared toward 13 to 18 year old high school students.

Experience Learning would like the WVMTR to partner with them on this project. Adam and I have been working with Katie and staff at EL the past couple months assisting with development. We of course have not committed WVMTR, but ask we consider that today. There are other club members already interested in volunteering for this years July 8-14 session.  EL personnel will staff the camp, two additional instructors with running backgrounds will be hired for the week. The WVMTR is asked to support one of these positions by matching the $500 cost.

Katie presented a more thorough presentation of course than I offer. Other board members who were present can add more.
