Our unique Ropes Course includes six low elements and twelve high elements located in the natural wooded setting on our 54-acre campus.
Our program includes introducing proper safety, set-up, use, take-down, and care of course and equipment. We develop team building and communication through games, low elements, and high elements in a safe, "challenge by choice" environment.
Throughout the week:
students engage in healthy risk-taking that supports communication, self-awareness, perseverance, and self-management skills
students develop social-emotional skills that are critical for school and life success
students engage in challenges that strengthen group communication skills, allow for goal setting, and foster resiliency
students use this experience to create a positive attitude, develop self-confidence, and enhance the skill set that allows them to work as leaders within their communities
