Nicole Boyd-2026 Superior Adventures Leader

Meet your Summer Youth Adventures Leader

“Hey there! My name is Nicole Boyd, and I’m excited to be the Summer Youth Adventures Leader for Bayfield County this season working with Superior Adventures. I graduated from Northland College in 2020 with a degree in Outdoor Education, and after spending the last few years working in the mental health field, I’m excited to return to my passion for outdoor learning, exploration, and adventuring with youth!

I’ve lived in the area since 2016 and currently reside in Washburn with my husband, two dogs, and three cats. In my free time you can find me gardening, biking in the barrens, kayaking, reading a good book, and more. I’m looking forward to a fun‑filled, sun‑baked summer full of adventures throughout the beautiful Chequamegon Bay Area. Hope to see you soon!”
