3 challenge your students... You can t go wrong with our Adventure Programs for Schools! SkyTrek Adventure Park offers students and teachers a chance to explore their abilities while encouraging each other to do the same, in an Aerial Trekking Course, set amongst the high cedars of The Enchanted Forest. Designed with all students in mind, each program is built to inspire leadership, encourage teamwork, and build self-confidence throughout this half day eco-adventure. With a focus on teamwork, students navigate through three progressive courses, each with a collection of obstacles including ziplines, climbing walls, Tarzan swings, swinging logs, and much more. with a true learning experience! Safety is our absolute priority. All equipment is routinely inspected, and is of the highest industry standard. Before the fun begins all students are walked through our interactive safety training program detailing each piece of equipment, its proper application, and a practical demonstration of our safety requirements. In addition, our NEW belay system eliminates the need to clip carabiners as you move throughout the course, so there s no longer a risk of becoming detached from the safety ropes. Students are now free to fly through the course at ease, and at the speed of their choosing. We are always more than happy to discuss our safety protocols in detail if desired, as well as address any questions or concerns you may have regarding the various options we have available for children with special needs or learning deficits. I have brought youth from the Community Connections Youth Program to Sky Trek Adventure Park. Having had the opportunity to watch youth test their physical and mental abilities throughout the Sky Trek courses, leaves them with an increased sense of confidence and appreciation for team work. The youth left the park with a sense of accomplishment and pride. - Anne Corrie, Youth Program Coordinator, Community Connections (Revelstoke) Society
