It's the holiday season, And brand new students, are coming 'round The winter snow (and desert sand) is white on the ground When instructors get into town They'll be trained and pumped to see students arrive...
It's expedition season, And our instructors, got skills and initiatives, For every student,
and every course, They will meet you, wherever you're at, Wherever your adventure begins...
They will have big fat packs, upon their backs And lots of gear for their entire crew So get ready for belonging and purpose, Waiting for you out in the wilderness...
It's our favorite season, Homeplace and Texas, are ready and waiting They are so excited to meet our new crew, When expedition finally begins They'll be going Outward Bound too...
Happy evening meeting, Happy challenge and adventuring, While the blue peter keeps waving, Peace love and chow, to all!
