UNCW Challenge Course

Last weekend I went to the Challenge Course at UNCW with some students and other faculty at NC State. We are in the process of building a challenge course at NC State and wanted to get some practice on a course before ours opens. Everyone that went is interested in becoming a course facilitator.
The course was fun, but I was a little nervous at first. The course is 40 feet off the ground and you have to climb a 50 foot cargo net to get to the high ropes section. After I climbed the net I had to stand on the platform for about five minutes to relax and get enough courage to do some of the challenges on the course. Most challenge courses are "challenge by choice" so you do anything that you want and you aren't forced to do anything. At the end of the day I felt like I had accomplished something. My parents got there just in time to see me go down the zip line.
Our challenge course should open in just a few weeks!
