1 Nov 2005 Outers 2005
Atikokan, On, is well known for its unique outdoor program.  This year since I (Veronique Jr) am enrolled in the program I have written about the experiences I have had in the Fall trips.  This programme is offered to Gr. 11 students attending AHS.  There are ususally 3-6 brigades in each year.  The brigades consist of 6-7 female students (there is also a male programme) which are placed in each brigade by teachers.  Friends and cliques are seperated, so its kinda hard to get along in your brigade.
