Valaqua Outtrips 2012

Valaqua Out-trips offer campers a chance to get away from it all with a great wilderness experience. These trips are designed to provide direct contact with God’s creation in a more intimate setting of 8 campers and 2-3 leaders. Each trip is geared to ensure that campers are adequately prepared to experience maximum fun and excitement in a safe and controlled environment. Be prepared to be challenged physically and spiritually, while you are led by qualified and experienced staff into some of the finest natural areas Alberta has to offer. Join us for one of the following amazing trips as we enjoy God’s outdoor playground!
