    Does anyone have a copy of "Readings from the Hurricane Island Outward Bound School" kicking around on a shelf or burried in a box not getting used?  I used mine for years and then made the mistake of loaning it to a student (I didn't realize that it was no longer available).  Well, it wasn't returned and has been greatly missed ever since.  I promise to use it lots and to use it wisely!!  Contact me at alish@cocc.edu .   THANKS!

    I might have it around - I will look. I could scan it and e-mail it. I have these from several OB schools plus multiple copies of the one I put together years ago for Canaidain Outward Bound Wilderness School.

    Hi Carolyn,

    I found a posting that you made in 2009 and am wondering if you still happen to have some resources/readings for OB -- I am instructing an OB course at the beginning of October in Canada and am searching for as many resources as I can find in the next month. Any help that you can offer would be so very much appreciated.  By the way, when and where did you work in Canada??  Thanks again, Coralee

    Good Morning Alistair,
     
    Thanks for the email/advice -- I just ordered two copies.... I had noticed this book on the OBI website before receiving your email....so, your recommendation convinced me to order one.  So, thanks for taking the time.
     
    All the best to you,
    Coralee
