Outward Bound bus Hits the road with The Dome’s Chelsea Kendrick on board…
Black Dome’s Chelsea Kendrick (far left) has been on loan for 6 months now…to the North Carolina Outward Bound school…Chelsea has been overseeing trips out of the Cedar Rock base camp.
For the next 2 months, she and her band of cohorts will be touring the country on the NCOB Service Bus, doing good deeds and generally having a blast in the outdoors. Chelsea will be checking in occasionally to give reports and make us all jealous…Have fun guys!
Here is the first of her reports:
Hello Friends and Family!
Just dropping a quick line to let folks know how the bus is doing. As most of you know I have chosen to spend the months of October through December traveling the country with eight other Outward Bound employees rock climbing, paddling and most importantly spreading compassion and the mission of Outward Bound through community service. This is the first of several updates as an attempt to stay in touch with the outside world and the people I care about out there! Also I want to say thanks to all of you all who contributed to our cause. This past week and a half we spent gearing up, white water conoeing on the Nantahala for three days (cold cold cold!)…Doing some service at a friends house whose father recently passed away and needed to clean out/ fix up the family house, Climbing in Chattanooga and finally today, doing some fixing up at a childrens home here in Chattanooga. Tomorrow we are doing a climbing work shop with the famous Arno Ilgner author of The Rock Warriors Way. We hope to all find our inner warriors and be fit to climb hard, as our trip will soon take us out west to such exciting areas as Joshua Tree, Red Rocks, Indian Creek, and Golden Cliffs Colorado! If you want to keep up with the service bus or make donations if you have not already, see our website ncobs.org/community. Wish us safe travels and I hope to see you all soon, Happy Halloween!
Much love Chelsea
The Steed, The Service, The fun…
