GIFT GIVING IDEAS
HOW TO GIVE A TRIP OR ADVENTURE AS A GIFT...
...and give a gift that truly keeps on giving.

Giving a trip as a gift for birthdays, anniversaries, or just for fun -- is BETTER than giving a traditional present. Here's how to make it special.

  • Print out a custom-made 'certificate' with an image of the trip and dates. (Create your own on Canva.com).
  • Wrap the 'certificate' in a series of boxes that get larger (think of those Russian nesting dolls).
  • Or pick a related item to something representing the trip (a camel, pyramid, item of travel clothing) and wrap the 'certificate' with the item.
  • Your gift will 'keep on giving' as your someone special anticipates and prepares for, experiences, and remembers the trip.

What Past Participants Have to Say

Best trips ever!
[The Denning's trips]are the best trips I've ever been on! Thank you so much! Ammon K Teen participant

This trip was life changing!
So, the list is pretty long:
I faced my fear of cliff jumping. I met great people and made good friends in just a week. I learned about many things such as philanthropy, small problems, and fitness. I changed my mindset to a more positive one. I discovered hobbies such as hiking, krav maga, parkour, and dancing. I learned skills such as dancing, one-armed pushups, cliff jumping form, hiking form (is that what it's called? The way you walk when you hike matters), etc. I learned how to set goals effectively and achieve them. And I learned, did, and lived so much more. I definitely recommend this trip to anyone. Nico P. Teen participant

This trip filled me
Love the memories. I'm heading home, full -- refueled. The reset was sorely needed. So grateful to you for all the planning and work to make this trip happen. And my daughter said the Denning kids are her true friends. Bill T. Adult participant

I had so much fun on this trip, it was just what I needed after a really hard school year! I met so many great people and had so much fun trying new things. On this trip I learned the power of being present and fully invested in every moment because that is how you truly live. I learned that doing less things but being fully present is so much better than doing lots of things without thinking. I came away from this trip with the motivation and the knowledge to overcome any obstacle in my path to an extraordinary life which I realized IS possible for me. This trip changed my life because now I feel like I'm truly living.

Abby S.

I had an absolute blast at bear lake with the Dennings! The food was fantastic, the people were uplifting and positive, and the activities were so fun. We had daily devotionals that left me feeling pumped and ready to face the world. We learned some first aid and self defense. I learned so much and didn’t want to leave. I would 100% recommend this to my friends. Thank you so much for a fabulous week.
