Who We Are
Cypress is Inspiring
A growing youth advocacy organization in Hartsville, South Carolina, Cypress Adventures is the only program of its kind in the state. By thoughtfully combining experiential education with adventure-based programming, we successfully equip middle and high school students from Darlington County with essential life-skills that prepare them for the future and position them to become productive adults, citizens, and leaders.
We partner with local schools and teachers to recruit students interested in growing in personal confidence and character while also making new friends, learning new skills, and experiencing the wonders of the great outdoors in fresh and exciting ways.
Located on a picturesque five-acre campus, the Cypress Adventures Education Center provides a welcoming environment for carrying out the critical work of helping young people become the best versions of themselves.
Designed to expose youth to opportunities and experiences that challenge their minds, bodies, and spirits, our programs foster the development of seven essential life-skills:
Health Communication
Critical Thinking
Conflict Resolution
Anger/Stress Management
Problem-Solving
Team-Building
Leadership Development
