Elements 2017 Program Application
Elements, New Student Outdoor Program, is an outdoor adventure experience for new incoming freshmen to the University of West
Georgia. Students will embark on a 5-day/4-night adventure before the start of the fall semester in some of the Southeast’s most
scenic outdoor destinations. Activities could include backpacking, canoeing, rafting, climbing, and zip lining. Each trip will have
several fun and exciting components throughout to keep the groups engaged and challenged. Groups will consist of nine student
participants and two outdoor program instructors in order to create a family like atmosphere. By the end of the week, participants and
leaders will have the opportunity to get to know other incoming freshmen, form new friendships, create lasting memories, and
discover new outdoor experiences before their West Georgia journey begins.
