20 Adventure/Networking Based: Outdoor Clubs Target Audience: College Students Implemented By: Appalachian National Scenic Trail Structure: Outings tied with service projects ATC Partner Dartmouth Outing Club

21 Target Audience: Youth and young adults Implemented By: Various trails Structure: Project specific service projects Service Corps: Various

22 Other Programs: Appaloosa Horse Club Nez Perce National Historic Trail Not specifically trail-related, but regularly does events on the Nez Perce NHT due to strong tribal connection Club connects youth with horses so they do not need to have their own to participate Regular meetings which teach youth equestrian basics, with special trips out on the trail

23 Getting Started: Program Goals Outdoor Adventure? Outdoor Classroom? Equestrian Skills? Trail Navigation? Trail Stewardship and Maintenance? Photo at left: the SKY program on the Pacific Northwest NST focuses on training young adults in trail building and crew leadership.

24 Getting Started Target an Audience Youth who have never been on horseback? Youth who are experienced riders and have their own horses? Youth taking equestrian courses? Club Leaders/Instructors? Recommendation: Pick one specific target audience to start with! The program can always be expanded later!

25 What Kinds of Resources Are Needed? In many cases, one dedicated individual is enough to get a program or event up and rolling Some programs become extensive enough to require additional staff capacity to administer them on a regular basis Transportation often primary expense Food Expense Extras T-shirts, journals, water bottles, etc. What s already available?

26 Partnership Possibilities Equestrian-Focused 4H Groups Riding Schools Trail Riding Companies Equestrian Organizations Non-Equestrian Schools Scout/Youth Groups Adventure Companies/Outing Clubs Community Centers/Churches Meet up Groups Diversity Groups Photo at right: Backcountry Horseman have partnered with the Pacific Northwest NST SKY Crews to help pack in supplies for their trail work projects

27

28 Where Can Resources be Found? Partnerships Local Foundations Local Businesses REI Grants, Health organizations Local Schools Corps Programs Corps Network 21 st Century Conservation Corps NCCC Example

29 Funding Wide variety of sources, particularly if the program integrates: Common Core/STEM/literacy educational concepts Health/fitness Environmental Awareness What is funding needed for? Transportation Staff time overhead for administration and participating in events Horse-related expenses?

30 The Youth Program Market Opportunity Recreational programs do not necessarily need to be heavily subsidized A strong demand for quality youth engagement experiences exist Many parents expect to pay to cover program costs Scholarships for some can be built into general program prices Working with an existing youth programming entity (summer camp, YMCA, Scouts) probably the best approach for marketing such opportunities

31 Outcomes Youth programs are an investment for the future BUT payoff is often more immediate: New funding sources Membership expansion and engagement Organizational marketing and publicity New partnerships lead to greater capacity

32 Youth Program Exercise Organization Suggested Youth Program (brief description) What/who is your target audience? What resources are needed? How will these resources be acquired? What partnerships will be needed? If funding will be needed, where will it be sought? How will the program be marketed? What are your desired outcomes? (list 3) What are the anticipated challenges? Who will provide leadership and oversight? How will you prepare for and accept some of these challenges? Bonus question: How will millennials be involved?
