technology for safety at heights of 10 to 60 feet. Fun and engaging low 

initiatives challenge a group to work together in accomplishing common 

goals. Both high and low initiatives are based on the “challenge by 

choice” philosophy. This means our staff will focus on safety, allowing 

you to choose the level of challenge that is right for you. Any and all levels 

of physical ability are encouraged, for ages 8 and up. Choose either family 

session or adults-only session. Participants must pre-register for this
