In this first session for Instructors/Trip Leaders of the new Mountaineers GoWalk! series, we'll give you the basic information and tools to get students started walking, share information about the series and what is involved, and connect you with a community of fellow volunteers .
Yes, students believe you are eager to help them with any roadblocks or fears and get out there, starting from where they are! This session will be recorded.
Required Equipment
At the Student Orientation, we'll give examples of gear for students to look at, and help in deciding what clothing and gear is essential for a given walk and set of conditions. As the series progresses we will help students fill in any gaps in your gear kit with a minimum of expense.
