The motto of ODAC is “Challenge the limits”. This motto, in essence, is the indomitable spirit of the NYJC Outdoor Activities Club.

The NYJC ODAC, like its name suggests, has done a wide array of outdoor activities which includes: camping, outdoor cooking, tent pitching, waterfall abseiling, white water rafting, night cycling and last but not least, hiking. These outdoor activities are sure to sate your wanderlust.

ODAC provides you many opportunities to do what you have always wanted but never dared to do. We give you the chance to be intrepid adventurers; we prepare you to tackle your next feat.

As a club, we push ourselves in order to reach greater heights. We are a bunch of close-knit members who motivate each other to reach our goals. We do our very best to ensure that every member is able to achieve the same goal, be it swimming, running or what have you.

Learning resilience and perseverance in ODAC is very applicable and relevant to our studies. The satisfaction of scaling one mountain’s peak is not unlike reaping what you sow in a test or examination. Just as we learn to endure whatever comes our way physically, we apply it to how we cope with our studies and challenges in our daily lives.

Whether it is abseiling down from a great height, roughing it out in the wild or overcoming a mountain summit, NYJC ODAC gives you the thrill you have always wanted. NYJC ODAC does not just help you conquer the outdoors. We help you overcome your greatest enemy- YOURSELF.
