The foundation of our Ropes Program is trust. As a Ropes Counselor, you'll participate in a week of trust building exercises, belay and climbing safety and equipment specification trainings. You'll be pushed out of your comfort zone and soar to new heights with your team!
Throughout of the summer, you'll facilitate bonding activities with campers and staff using our state of the art high and low ropes challenge courses and equipment. You'll encourage kids to set goals like reaching the top of the climbing wall or conquering a fear of the zip line. You'll provide support and instruction as they attempt to face challenges and obstacles, both physical and emotional. Best of all, you'll be there to celebrate with them when they succeed!
