We are happy to customize a program perfect for your school, just call us to discuss.

Safety is always our first priority
Since 1992, Canadian Outback Adventures & Events has been a leader in risk management in the adventure tourism sector. Through our involvement with the BC River Outfitters Association, stringent risk management policies are maintained and evaluated across all divisions of our company. We are active members of Tourism Vancouver, Tourism Victoria, Tourism Whistler and Tourism Squamish. All require us to maintain industry standards for safety. Also, our talented staff pride themselves on providing memorable and safe experiences for all our guests.
Our Survivor! event, known to our corporate clients as "Corporate Castaways", consists of a series of adventurous tasks. These are all extremely low or no risk, and are each led by one of our trained event hosts. The greatest risk found during this event would be walking along a balance beam 8"-12" above the ground. Injuries during this event are unheard of.
The Cheakamus Splash scenic float trip we have chosen is an ideal soft-adventure for kids as young as 5 years of age. Every year thousands of kids and their families from around the world raft down the Cheakamus River. We typically have 8-10 guests per raft, fully outfitted in required safety gear (pfd and helmet). Each raft is guided by a certified rafting guide. There has never been a major incident during a commercial rafting trip on the Cheakamus River. Got questions about the Cheakamus Splash experience?

A parent or guardian of each participant must sign our waiver of liability prior to the event. Please click here for a preview. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this document or our risk management policies, feel free to contact us.
