Leaders and guides are responsible for the overall safety and enjoyment of their group, 24 hours a day, while on a Ventures trip. Duties include safety monitoring, providing physical and emotional support, oversee health care, activity planning, budgeting, written summaries of each traveler's experience and most importantly enhancing fun.
