Collegiate outdoor recreation program, providing experiences for students, staff, and the community. There are three things that we cannot do without.

People: They are what makes the world go 'round. They're why we're exist. They're what we're passionate about. They are the who that makes the choices. Nature: We believe that the future of our natural world is in our hands. It's up to us to realize how precious it is, how fragile it can be, and what adventures it holds in store for us. We believe that we are responsible for giving back to nature

Operating as usual

Well that's a wrap! Our 2021 CSI Ski Swap was a success! We have not had the ski swap since 2017 so this was a test year to see if the community had interest or a need for it, you did!

We would really like to thank College of Southern Idaho for allowing us to host on campus. We would also like to thank the College of Southern Idaho Recreation Department, the CSI Challenge Course, the Presidential Leaders Program, and the Outdoor Leadership Program for providing student staff to help at the event. We would also like to thank Domino's Pizza for providing some pizza for all of the staff on Saturday!

We would also like to send a HUGE thank you to Barrie's Ski and Sports. We would not have been able to have this swap without them, we look forward to having them in future years. Another thank you to the Magic Valley Gear Exchange,they are one of CSI Outdoors' biggest supporters!

Most of all, we would like to thank YOU, the community for coming to the swap and showing us the need and interest in the area! All of the proceeds that we make from this swap go directly towards providing low cost or free trips to students! Thank you for supporting this program and your local community college! We will be back with the ski swap next year, but bigger and better! Think snow!
