DETAILS:                   Alley Pond Adventure Course is an outdoor ropes course that fosters trust, problem-solving, and team-building right in your own backyard at beautiful Alley Pond Park. Starting this weekend, the Urban Park Rangers will offer FREE programs at the Adventure Course for individuals aged 8 and older.

There will be many adventure-filled activities, including:

 

Nitro swing – Test out your ability to communicate and problem-solve as a team. You’ve got one goal: get everyone on your team from one “island” to the other.

 

Climbing wall – This course allows you to control the pace and difficulty of your climb, as you try to make it to the top!

 

Human Swing shot – Put your trust in your team, as they hoist you up to your desired height above the ground and let go for a swinging good time.

 

Zip line – Suspended forty feet above the ground, this intense zip line will zoom you across a 100 yard span in the blink of an eye.

 

The program is offered on a first-come, first-served basis throughout May and June. Beginning July 1, pre-registration for the program is required. Please visit our Urban Park Rangers program registration page to register.
