Dear Member of Cornell Alumni Admission Ambassador Network,

We would like to thank you for taking the time and energy to connect with prospective students of Cornell and helping to ease their transition to life in Ithaca. We are also about helping students transition to Cornell and insuring students start their college careers on the right foot. Image Outdoor Odyssey runs three, four and six day pre-orientation programs in the natural areas surround Ithaca and in the Adirondacks and Catskills. Our primary mission is help students transition to Cornell.

Outdoor Odyssey (Odyssey) began in 1972 with a few backpacking and camping trips led by trained upperclassman guides. Currently, Odyssey offers over 20 trips in rock climbing, canoeing, backpacking, outdoor photography, mountain biking, tree climbing and many more trips all led by current Cornell students. New this year, we are offering a series of base camping trips that will have access to flush lavatories and showers. All of our upperclassmen guides go through a rigorous semester long training and maintain current first aid and CPR certifications. The training also focuses on creating a positive environment for students to connect with each other and learn about college from current students.

We are hoping to connect with more students and we need your help.  Please inform incoming students about Outdoor Odyssey and our mission to help students ease their transition to Cornell.  Please feel to contact us or have students contact us via email at   or visit our new website at http://odyssey.coe.cornell.edu/ . Again, we would like to thank you for all of your hard work and the important service you provide to students.

                                                                                                    Sincerely,

                                                                                                    Gregory Billing '08

I would say even if you've never done anything outdoors before, it's a great opportunity to try something new.
