Seattle ICO

Our mission: partner with under-served public schools in the Seattle area to help young people discover the beauty of wild lands. Seattle ICO is a chapter of Sierra Club Inspiring Connections Outdoors, a nation-wide program with 50 volunteer-run ICO groups that conduct more than 800 outings for over 14,000 youth each year! ICO supports John Muir's assertion that people who experience wilderness first hand are much more likely to preserve it for future generations.

Seattle ICO Volunteers lead active and fun outdoor adventures to promote environmental education. Outings volunteers organize and lead free weekend trips for Seattle area youth to go hiking, camping, canoeing, sledding, snowshoeing, skiing, backpacking, rafting, kayaking, and more!
