When Terracentric owners Christine Hollmann and Hugh Prichard met, it was quickly apparent that they shared a common vision - a company that offered innovative, high quality, experiential adventures in the amazing outdoors of the upper Sunshine Coast. Powell River had the perfect physical environment for the development of adventure based learning and recreation programs that provide active, positive learning opportunities for youth, families and educational, therapeutic and organizational groups. Since June of 2001 Terracentric Coastal Adventures has been consulting, developing and delivering adventure learning programs and wilderness guiding services in a wide range of settings for both public and private sector organizations. After 3 successful years located right in the Lund Hotel building, we have as of July 1st, 2005 moved our office and storefront to the top floor of the beautiful new Harbour's Edge building, which is home to the well known Nancy's Bakery. This move allows us to focus more heavily on our marine environmental education through our tours and programs. We will be working to have proceeds from our tours going to the Georgia Strait Alliance, an organization that exists to raise awareness about and effect change in pollution of the Strait. At the same time, we continue to hilight the forest environmental through our hikes and also at our Ropes Course facility, located south of Powell River.
