Making an Impact: OAP
Scholarship Program
The Outdoor Adventure Program (OAP) provided
scholarship opportunities for ODU student organizations to
engage in outdoor experiences. Scholarship recipients were
able to participate in a one-day or weekend adventure trip
at no cost.
Trip experiences included: canoeing on the Roanoke River
and rock climbing in the Shenandoah Mountains.
All trips were led by trained OAP staff members.
In preparation for their experience, participants completed
a mandatory trip training session. The session provided a
brief overview of OAP’s trip philosophy as well as covered
trip related content such as relative skill requirements and
packing specifications.
By continuing to expand such programs, OAP hopes to
provide an environment for life-long learning through once-in-
a-lifetime experiences.
