Outdoors Tomorrow Foundation (OTF) began in 1981 with the primary purpose of expanding youth outdoor education and furthering wildlife conservation efforts worldwide. In 1998, with a model provided by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, OTF pioneered the first public educational curriculum for secondary schools in Texas called “Outdoor Trails.” In 2007 a complete curriculum rewrite helped merit accreditation by the Texas Education Association for the newly named “Outdoor Adventures” (OA) program.
