2020 FDrock Nomination Form

Nominations for the 2020 FDRock are now Closed

Our FDrock program is for that person who has been your “Rock” throughout everything that cancer brings. While we wish we could take every Rock out to a First Descents program, we are currently limited to a few programs per year. Because of this, we have implemented a nomination process for both our alumni and their Rocks to complete. 

Eligibility: Any young adult who has attended one of our Week-Long oncology programs prior to 2020 is eligible to nominate a Rock (at this time First Descents cannot accept applications from young adults who attended the MS program).

In 2020 we are excited to offer TWO FDrock programs! Please nominate your Rock for ONE of the following programs.


1. Whitewater Kayaking with the Nantahala Outdoor Center in Bryson City, NC (May 11th-16th) 

2. Rock Climbing at Horseshoe Canyon Ranch near Bentonville, AR (Nov. 2nd-7th)


These Rock programs are 100% free of charge and will include lodging, food, gear, and guides (Rocks are responsible for their own cost of travel) Stay tuned for more information!


Nominations for the 2020 FDRock are now Closed
