Girls benefit from being outside just as much as boys do.
At Prickly Pears, we want girls to have plenty of opportunities to build confidence, independence, resilience, and a genuine love for the outdoors.
And right now, only about 1 in 3 of our applicants are girls.
So consider this your invitation. Bring us your wild girls.

These kids had a blast splashing in puddles all over the park today. When the weather decides to rain all day, you have to embrace it! We ended up biking about 5 miles today despite the wet/rainy conditions.
