Reach, serve and influence.

REACH. SERVE. INFLUENCE These are my reflections, in a very fortunate position, whilst observing the prefects at a leadership camp at The Salvation Army, Blue Mountain Adventure Center in Raurimu, near the National Park. This little oasis is an absolute gem of a hideaway. The three large dormitory style lodges have comfy bunk beds, smart clean modern showers and well stocked self catering kitchens. We were there for three days. The first day included team building discussions and in door leadership, mind-switch games. The big indoor barn with an impressive climbing wall is a perfect getaway from the sun, or shelter from the rain and cold. Enthusiastic and well prepared outdoor instructors allow the visiting teaching staff and students to feel at ease while remaining excited about each new leadership challenge. My only regret was leaving my goPro at home because the white water rafting in a 2 man inflatable along the Tongariro River is an exhilarating activities worth capturing- note
