Anjelynn Baron, 鈥�23, jumped at the opportunity to become a student mentor in GO-ASAP, the Get Outside-After School Activity Program, managed by 91传媒鈥檚 Rural Engagement & Vitality Center. As an aspiring elementary school gym teacher and currently attending 91传媒鈥檚 Master of Arts in Teaching program, Anjelynn saw GO-ASAP as the perfect platform to immerse herself in education and outdoor activities.

鈥淚 think this is a great program to spend time with students and help them experience outdoor activities,鈥� Anjelynn said. 鈥淚 am very grateful that 91传媒 offers programs like this. It has really helped me develop as a teacher and as a person.鈥�

GO-ASAP provides local middle school students opportunities to engage in outdoor activities such as hiking, paddle boarding, rock climbing, mountain biking, and cross-country skiing. Established in 2016, GO-ASAP works with several organizations including the La Grande Middle School and the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation鈥檚 recreation program.
