Scouts & Youth Groups

As a former scout leader, the owner of Performance Tours recognizes the importance of adventure combined with learning opportunities through scouting. Strengthening the scouting bond through team building activities like whitewater rafting and camping can’t be beat. We have hosted thousands of scouts since 1986 and continue to provide life long memories, while promoting important scouting values. We are happy to extend a group discount to all scouting organizations.

 

Please give our reservation specialists a call and we’ll do the work for you! A very popular option is having us set up a group reservation and have everyone pay us individually via a secure link. This takes some of the pressure and financial commitment off of the organizer and on to the individual participants. The organizer can simply provide the link to the participants. The organizer can call us at any time to see who has reserved, and keep everyone on track. Our goal is to make everything as easy and stress free as possible for the organizer and everyone participating.

Taking your scout group rafting can be an exhilarating and rewarding experience, offering numerous benefits:

  • Teamwork: Rafting requires effective communication and coordination among team members to navigate the waters safely. It promotes teamwork and helps scouts learn to rely on each other.
  • Leadership: Assigning roles such as captain, navigator, and paddlers allows scouts to practice leadership skills and take on responsibilities within the group.
  • Outdoor Skills: Rafting exposes scouts to the outdoors and teaches them valuable skills such as reading water, tying knots, and using paddling techniques.
  • Physical Activity: Rafting is a physically demanding activity that promotes fitness and encourages scouts to stay active and healthy.
  • Risk Management: Learning to assess and manage risks in a controlled environment is an essential skill for scouts, and rafting provides an opportunity to do so under the guidance of experienced instructors.
  • Nature Appreciation: Rafting takes scouts into natural environments, fostering an appreciation for the outdoors and raising awareness about conservation efforts.
  • Overcoming Challenges: Conquering rapids and navigating obstacles on the river helps scouts build confidence and resilience as they overcome challenges together.
  • Social Bonding: Spending time together in a challenging and exciting environment strengthens bonds among scouts and fosters a sense of camaraderie.
  • Environmental Education: Rafting trips often include opportunities to learn about the local ecosystem, wildlife, and conservation efforts, promoting environmental awareness and stewardship.
  • Memorable Experience: Rafting is a thrilling adventure that creates lasting memories for scouts, encouraging them to step out of their comfort zones and embrace new experiences.
