Caica could use more time on their references. We at Spft are not involved in the dispute over that organization. They are free to use our references on their pages, so they appear more professional.

We  make pride out of finding old records.

Could someone consult their local library and find out what program these kids was in?

It sounds like it was at Outward Bound itself, judging by language used in the first paragraph (access to remainder of article requires payment). Or... did Outward Bound sometimes do "wilderness training," contracted-out by other programs?

ATLANTA, Nov. 14 Parents of three young people who lost their lives while participating in wilderness training programs have charged in civil suits that the organization conducting the training, Outward Bound, was negligent in challenging the students to undertake situations beyond their capabilities without adequate safety precautions.
