4-H Arkansas Outdoor School (AOS)
About Us

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide learners of all ages a positive outdoor education experience; to instill a lifelong enthusiasm, appreciation, and sense of responsibility toward the natural world; and to assist participants in ultimately making informed environmental decisions.

Through our experience-based activities, it is our intention to introduce participants to the 4-H Leadership Life Skills as interpreted through our mission: Learning about the natural world, communication through teamwork, conservation of our natural resources, exploring relationships to and within nature, understanding self, and decision making particularly with regard to understanding the environmental impact of our choices.

Our History

Since 1993, the Arkansas Outdoor School (AOS) program (formally known as RES-Q) has hosted thousands of participants each year, positively impacting the communities from whom they come.

Our Partners

Our program is funded by the University of Arkansas Cooperative Extension Service, the Arkansas 4-H Foundation and many other partners who support both education and wise use of Arkansas' natural resources.
