Underway Outdoor Adventure Programs
 Looking for a fun and exciting way to introduce your group to each other or are you looking to improve team work and explore how your group communicates, cooperates, and solves problems? Then the Team Activities are just for you! Break the Ice with our Team Initiatives that are designed to break down barriers and get people cooperating and trusting each other. This is a fun way to build camaraderie and cooperation in your team. Or challenge your group even further by experiencing the Teams Course! Our Teams Course is designed to challenge participants in a series of obstacles that focus on group decision making, communication, trust, cooperation, and more. The Teams Course is a series of powerful leadership and team building experiences designed to maximize individual and team potential. Experiences are specifically designed to improve group interaction, efficiency, and effectiveness. Courses can range from three hours to a full day! Call us for prices and available dates. If your group is unable to travel to our program site, then we can bring an abbreviated version of this course to a location near you.  Set your goal and obtain it by climbing one of the many scenic cliffs found near Touch of Nature Environmental Center. Experience a new challenge as you strive to reach the top and feel the accomplishments as you rappel back down the cliff. Programs can range between a half day climb to an overnight climbing expedition.
