Community collaborations are strengthened and maintained through an advisory board that includes members associated with local businesses, schools, churches, parenting associations and families. Extension staff and Adventure Club staff meet with board members on a regular basis to discuss program plans. The board meets on a formal basis at least twice yearly. Community awareness has increased due to collaborator support and communication efforts. All children grades K-6th are targeted for the Shoshone Adventure Club.
Scholarships are readily available for disadvantaged families.
The local Juvenile Justice informs parents about the opportunities within the program. Children with the Adventure Club receive education on life skills throughout the year and enjoy the camaraderie that results from the instruction. The nutrition segment of the program also increases their awareness of the correlation between good health, improvement in concentration and retention when following the food guide pyramid. Many of these youth fulfill these needs in the Shoshone Adventure Club. They serve as role models for the children and are extremely helpful in all aspects of the program.
