In January 2020, GCY reached an important milestone, purchasing its longtime headquarters and warehouse facilities in Flagstaff, AZ to create a permanent home for our programs. Prior to the worldwide pandemic, GCY had served over 10,000 young people since 1998. Expeditions typically run from March through October.
