Challenge

Challenge education has been an important, and popular part of the Sly Park program, for many years. Campers participate in a variety of activities that test their abilities, both physical and mental.

Challenge activities involve low elements that are designed to promote group and individual problem solving skills, group interaction and cooperation, acceptance of others ideas, and an awareness of personal limits. Activities help to develop trust, improve communication skills, and develop the leadership skills, that are present in all of us.

Our indoor climbing wall is designed to allow each student to explore his or her own personal limits, in a safe environment. Self awareness is developed as the student attempts to reach the summit of the wall.
