UPDATE: Some of the photos previously posted for the Ropes Course were incorrect. The Ropes Course excursion contains low ropes elements only. For high ropes, you want the Alpine Tower excursion.
With over 20 different challenges, this course is conducted deep in the woods and focuses on building skills like teamwork, problem solving, communication and leadership. PERFECT for building unity in your youth group.
Offered Monday through Thursday.
