Anjelynn Baron, ’23, jumped at the opportunity to become a student mentor in GO-ASAP, the Get Outside-After School Activity Program, managed by EOU’s Rural Engagement & Vitality Center. As an aspiring elementary school gym teacher and currently attending EOU’s Master of Arts in Teaching program, Anjelynn saw GO-ASAP as the perfect platform to immerse herself in education and outdoor activities.
“I think this is a great program to spend time with students and help them experience outdoor activities,” Anjelynn said. “I am very grateful that EOU offers programs like this. It has really helped me develop as a teacher and as a person.”
GO-ASAP provides local middle school students opportunities to engage in outdoor activities such as hiking, paddle boarding, rock climbing, mountain biking, and cross-country skiing. Established in 2016, GO-ASAP works with several organizations including the La Grande Middle School and the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation’s recreation program.
