2024 Crew Champion applications are live!
Let’s make outdoors for all.
Do you love to adventure? Is your favorite place the great outdoors? Are you training for a hike, paddle, or bike ride? Then we want you to be a Crew Champion!
We are inviting enthusiastic adventurers to turn their passion for nature into opportunities for city youth. When you become a Crew Champion, you're sharing your love of the outdoors by creating a peer-to-peer fundraiser to support Adventure Crew. The donations you inspire will mean more Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky kids will experience kayaking, biking, hiking, fishing, rock climbing, ice skating, camping, swimming, and other awesome outdoor adventures -- making them happier and healthier young people.

Chase and Cole lived adventurous, fun-filled lives that were contagious. Rarely did a weekend go by without the boys embarking on activities that left their shoes caked in mud on Mama’s porch and dinnertime stories filled with laughs and thrills, sometimes at their friends’ expense. To celebrate their lives, Chase and Cole’s family created a Crew Champion fundraiser to support access to the outdoor adventures that Chase and Cole loved so much.
Our first female champion, Erin Harper competed in the Vernal Equinox 8-Hour Endurance Race on April 1. We appreciate her hard work to support the Crew!
