  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 5 people are interested

Come out to the ropes course for a fun filled day-trip. These usually occur on the weekends where youth participate in low and high elements. Low element activities are on the ground which foster teamwork, overcoming challenges, and support. The high elements are rock-climbing and walking across cables suspended 35 feet in the air (facilitated by trained and certified belayers), focusing on overcoming fears, problem-solving, and pushing yourself to new limits in a safe and controlled way
