Outdoor Odyssey vs. POST?

I really want to do a pre-orientation program but am having trouble picking one! I’m not outdoorsy at all but was thinking of trying a 4-day backpacking trip. I’m also considering POST because I love community service and I think it’d be cool to explore Ithaca before school starts. Also, my parents want to help me move in and I’d be able to do that with POST.

Any pros/cons of each, opinions on which is better/what type of people do each program (I am looking to make some friends through this) would be greatly appreciated!
