SKILL LEVEL
With so many great outdoor adventure activities we are often asked if prior experience is needed. No prior experience is needed for any of our activities. All you need is a desire to try new things and laugh with new friends. We offer a variety of levels of instruction to accommodate skills, goals and interest. For example in our climbing program some campers may choose to try the climbing wall during an evening program and find some satisfaction in that experience. For others it's a doorway to more extensive climbing outside of camp.
