Low Ropes Course
Our 12 element low ropes course will present all groups with physical challenges as well as problem solving situations.  The emphasis of each element is placed on developing cooperation and trust among all group members.  Whether navigating through the spider web, scaling the wall, swinging across the nitro, or traversing the many other elements, a time of team building and fun is sure to be had by all.

Zip Line – Everyone who participates in the high ropes course will have the opportunity to experience the thrill of the zip line.  At 480 feet long, this 9 second ride into the waters of Lake Gaston will give each person a memory for years to come.  Each year this proves to be a highlight for many campers!
