Program Description
Enjoy the outdoors while building connections, challenging themselves, and learning about our natural and cultivated world. In the Youth Development program, students rotate through three stations:
- High Ropes Course: Reach new heights by using our ropes course to challenge your group and take safe risks. We practice goal setting, group encouragement, and debriefing. All safety gear (helmet, harness, ropes) is provided.
- Team Building Initiatives: Be faced with a series of challenges designed to provoke critical thinking and problem-solving. Our team-building facilitators will take you onto some of our low-elements and lead fun activities designed to teach valuable communication and leadership skills.
- Farm Tour: Meet our super-friendly sheep, chickens, goats, pigs, and cows! Participants have the opportunity to join their guide inside the animal pens to touch the animals and sometimes even give them a treat! Guides also provide age-appropriate information about our sustainable farming practices (a group favorite!).
