We are all better than we know. If only we can be brought to realise this,
we may never be prepared to settle for anything less."

The Outward Bound Trust exists to turn these words into reality for an ever-increasing number of young people.
Outward Bound Monaco once again participated at the fabulous Monaco USA quiz night at Stars N Bars on Monday 1 April.
Resplendent in our fabulous new Nike OBM polo shirts, kindly sponsored/financed by OBM committee member Graham Fillery, we were definitely noticed for our uniform, if not our intellect!
The evening was sponsored by Debbie Gorski (OBM committee, Marketing and PR) and succeeded in drawing further attention to Outward Bound Monaco.
Vanessa Ilsley presented our Patron HSH Prince Albert with a polo shirt and a great time was had by all.
