ABSTRACT:
Aspects of outdoor adventure education such as sport and risk are increasingly commercialized, whereas the core value of
connection--to community, the environment, or other people--is being
lost. A shift from providing challenge to encouraging exploration
may enable programs emphasizing connection to find a home in
the "third sector" (nonprofit, voluntary) economy. Contains 30
