Get Outdoors at The Club for Boys!

The Outdoor Program provides boys the chance to experience the Rapid City community, the beautiful Black Hills, and all that nature has to offer. Boys participate in activities like fishing, hiking, biking, archery, canoeing, and many other trips throughout the Hills. The Outdoor Program teaches our boys real-world skills, such as hunter safety, survival skills, and how to respect nature.

Aims and Objectives of the Outdoor Program:

  • Encourage boys to spend less time on the computer and video games and get them into the outdoors through Creek Explorers, hiking, biking, and much more.
  • Provide boys with small and large group experiences like our Mickelson Trail bike ride and our Hooked on Hardwater event.
  • Teach boys outdoor skills such as archery, fly tying and outdoor survival skills.
  • Help boys develop life-long skills, hobbies, and interests such as fishing, canoeing, and gardening.
  • Educate boys on the laws and requirements of outdoor activities through Hunter Safety.
  • Teach boys a respect for nature.

Club Garden

The Club maintains an on-site garden that teaches boys valuable skills that they will use for a lifetime, gives them the opportunity to have fun with their peers, and provides them with the satisfaction of growing fruits and vegetables for the Club.
