Outdoor Action Search
Outdoor Action offers a variety of paddling programs including flatwater and whitewater canoeing on the Frosh Trip, local canoeing trips in the Princeton area and kayaking training class in the pool.
Whether you want to be prepared for an emergency on campus, at home, or when traveling in the wilderness, make sure you have the proper training to safeguard yourself and others. CPR and an approved wilderness first aid course can help prepare you to handle a first aid emergency.
These awards are given annually to seniors in the Outdoor Action Program who have made significant contributions to the program and to the lives of others at Princeton University. Thanks and congratulations to all of them from the staff at Outdoor Action and from the Friends of OA Board.
