This past weekend saw ten young Bermudians challenge themselves and take the first step in embarking on their life-changing Raleigh Bermuda experience on beautiful Darrell’s Island.

Whether it was participating in guided/supported activities, learning how to build and sleep in a bivouac, building an open fire and cooking a meal over it, understanding the UN Millennium Development Goals or learning the intricate rules of Mafia and Ninja, our Participants spent the weekend learning more about themselves, each other and their world in an entirely new way.

The Raleigh 2014 participants are: Chloé Baron, Yin’Nikkei Bartley, Raekwon Hare, ZaKiya Lightbourne, Juanée Scott, Kyle Smith-Burgess, Jumoke Stovell, Kalaeb Tannock, Neville Vanderpool & Kinye Watson.
