For more than 60 years, we have provided educational, leadership development, therapy, and recreation opportunities for adults and youth through our unique program areas. Our program staff are highly trained to help our groups and participants achieve outcomes – whatever they may be.
We're hiring! At Bradford Woods, you have the chance to provide "Outdoors for All" through our transformative outdoor experiences and programs. Multiple positions are available, including full-time, part-time, and seasonal roles.
During your stay, you are welcome to enjoy, explore, and hike the property.
Our staff are also on-hand to facilitate outdoor recreation opportunities, including canoeing, swimming, climbing, archery, and more.

Each participant must complete our Participant Agreement form in order to participate.
While participating in our activities, all participants must wear closed-toe shoes. For water-based activities, sandals that stay on the foot or water shoes may be used. Contact us for booking and pricing information (most activities are billed by the hour).
