A big part of our summer program is physical fitness. Today our scholar athletes learned yoga and played ultimate frisbee at Pier Park. If you want to join our team we are hiring a new development director. Learn more and apply here: http://www.ptande.org/development-director #ptande #portland #jobs #outdoors

It was our 17th Passport Oregon trip of the year and we are excited to continue to adventure all summer and fall! #explore #exploregon #mthood #adventure #ptande

We are midway through our 2nd week of summer program and having been having fun and learning lots during our first 6 days! The theme of this summers program is "Kids in College" and each one of our scholar athletes has the opportunity to take the classes that interest them most. The summer program is specially designed to fight summer learning loss while keeping our students minds and bodies healthy! You can support our summer program and more fun adventures by donating here: http://www.ptande.org/general-donations Here are a few pictures from the first week: #ptande #scholarathlete #summer #portland #fun
