Here at Kennolyn we love climbing things!
Below you will find a list of the different programs we offer.
Day Camp Ropes Course
The ropes course is a challenging activity for campers going into the 5th-7th grades. The activity begins on our low ropes course, where campers do new games, challenges, and low ropes elements. These activities help to develop the skills, the confidence, and the group support needed for the high ropes course. For the high ropes course campers head for the tree tops to try challenges like the Multi-Vine, Burma Bridge, Balance Log, Vertical Steps, Vertical Playpen, and the Giant Swing a favorite of most campers. Low Ropes Course The low Ropes Course is specially designed adventure activity for campers who are going into 1st & 2nd grades. Campers will use Kennolyn's Low Ropes Course, which incorporates elements such as a Ants on a Log, Multi-Vine Traverse, and the Plank Walk, all built with younger campers in mind. This is a perfect stepping-stone to our adventure programs introducing campers to new challenges. In addition campers will participate in team building games like the famous Sherpa Walk & Toxic Transport.
Climbing
For campers entering the 3rd grade and over, this activity is designed to develop strength and agility. Taught on our state-of-the-art climbing wall, this activity is very popular. Campers move through traversing activities designed to stimulate movement, develop balance and increase kinesthetic awareness. Included in the instruction are basic climbing protocol and procedures as well as belay techniques, which lead to climbing in a very safe and controlled environment. |
