GREAT OUTDOORS
ICE
BREAKERS
The activities in this module are aimed at HAVING FUN!
Participants will have the opportunity to interact with others
in the group and get to know each other better. The
atmosphere is light-hearted and relaxed.
RIVER TRIP
Adventures Unlimited offers some of the best
canoeing in the world. Streams that flow through the
Blackwater State Forest are spring fed, clear and shallow,
with white sandy beaches at every bend; giving
each student the chance to appreciate the calm of the
outdoors. Most importantly, it provides a wonderful
opportunity to learn about: the cycle of water, the history of
the area, geology, herpetology, basic physics, ecology, the
environment and the unique plant life of the area.
Team Trust I
This module is the beginning of the outdoor
challenge experience that focuses each participant on
strategic planning, communication, trial application, and
interpersonal support. Bonds that will last throughout the
school year begin here. This module includes icebreakers,
orienteering, and complex problem solving initiatives.
Team Trust II
This module hones in on the specific skills needed to operate
as a team. Participants are challenged as a group to assess
obstacles, create an action plan, and implement a series of
solutions. These projects challenge the team’s communication
skills and compel them to identify the components of success.
If it sounds too serious, don’t worry; we’ll be having so much
fun that you won’t even know how much you’re learning until
it’s all over!
STARGAZING
The perfect end to a day outdoors! After learning
about the visible constellations, students have a chance to
pick them out of the night sky, both with a telescope and with
the naked eye.
HAYRIDE & BONFIRE
Enjoy a scenic, moonlight ride through the night forest.
Afterwards enjoy an evening around
the bonfire. We provide the fire, the stories, and the
marshmallows. We also facilitate story-telling and team
development events.
