ODP Spring 2012
ODP has had an exciting and active first few weeks. Our current group is twenty students strong, and since the beginning of March, all of these hardy volunteers have been sampling the many activities which make spring ODP what it is: hiking local trails, paddling and swimming in the ocean and river, and climbing at the indoor rock gym. Students must now choose to specialize in rock climbing or whitewater kayaking.
For some, it is an easy choice, but several students are still agonizing as they deliberate about the relative advantages of each specialty. From this week on, rock climbers will ride their bikes to the indoor gym for 2 hours of climbing tidbits each Tuesday, while the whitewater kayakers will travel to the Cowichan River to paddle on a diet of whitewater that will steadily increase in difficulty as the spring term progresses. From the perspective of the outsider, it must all look the same - a steady diet of adventure and excitement (perhaps not what a Jedi seeks).
