BALANCED PROGRAM afternoon program: rappelling and rock climbing

RAPPELLING & ROCK CLIMBING

Rappelling and Climbing are not only exciting activities, but they’re also great confidence builders! After all, if you’re not living on the edge you’re just taking up space! 8th-grade boys and girls begin to realize what they are capable of when they overcome their apprehensions and begin to “learn the ropes”! The instruction begins on our “Twin Towers,” and campers safely learn basic rappelling and climbing techniques. At the end of the term, those campers with the skill and the desire go on a field trip to Alabama’s highest peak, Cheaha Mountain, where they rappel down a 100-foot granite cliff!
