About

Boundless Edventures Inc. is a non profit 501 (c)(3), founded in 2022 by Holly Baca in collaboration with an amazing group of volunteers who have helped kids throughout our community in schools, therapy clinics, camps, sports, and as parents.
 
We live in a beautiful part of the country that should be explored and understood. We are blessed to have access to the water and nearby trails, as well as a desire to share our resources with kids who might not otherwise seek out these opportunities. 

Our Founder
Holly Baca, COTA/L

Holly is a licensed practitioner who has provided 23 years of Occupational Therapy Services for children ages 2-18, with a variety of diagnoses. She has worked in the school system and private practices in both California and Maryland, focusing on sensory integration, fine motor skill development, executive function training, and life skills education. "I have seen children thrive in their development when they are physically challenged. When we expose them to the outdoors and engage them in new experiences that stimulate all of their senses, we see them blossom!"

Scott Steers

Scott's journey from marketing and business development into consulting for non-profits, particularly churches, spans over two decades. His involvement with the differently abled community began when he volunteered with school-age kids labeled as "Slow Learners." Through this experience, Scott discovered a natural affinity and skill for connecting and communicating effectively with these children. Motivated by his positive experiences, Scott founded Lucky and Blessed Fishing two years ago. This initiative has evolved into a non-profit organization that has already facilitated over 200 fishing adventures for individuals across six counties in Maryland. Lucky and Blessed Fishing officially gained 501c3 status in late 2023, marking a significant milestone in its journey to serve the community. Scott's background in marketing and business development, coupled with his genuine passion for serving others, has evidently shaped his ability to create meaningful impact through Lucky and Blessed Fishing and now with Boundless Edventures. Over the last two years, Scott has really enjoyed building relationships with the BE leadership and kiddos and recently decided to join the board, to be able to support this amazing charity organization in new ways! His story highlights the transformative power of combining professional skills with personal passion to benefit underserved communities.

In her free time she can always be found outdoors. Her passion is hiking year round with her dogs and occasional backpack trips on the AT. In the summer she enjoys being on the local waters paddleboarding and kayaking. Mental health is very important to her and she believes staying active and being outdoors is key! Boundless has given her the chance to share this with teens who need that extra support and encouragement.

​Jesse N Renee Hillmann-Prenticeeimus

Renee has been a pediatric physical therapist for over 30 years.  She is the owner of Annapolis Children's Therapy Center, the President of R.E.A.C.H. Early To Thrive, and now she is so excited to be the Vice President of Holly's program:  Boundless Edventures, Inc.  "I can't imagine anything more important than contributing to programs that make a difference in the lives of children." Scientific studies repeatedly have shown the benefits of outdoor activities to a child's development. Despite this research, participation in outdoor activities continues to diminish.  Boundless Edventures is an exciting, relevant, and much needed program to provide a wide variety of outdoor experiences which will directly impact a child's physical, cognitive, social and emotional development.  "I am honored to be participating in the development of this program, I cannot wait to see the growth of this program and appreciate the impact it will have on our community."
