Challenge Course




The low ropes challenge course is a wonderful activity for teambuilding for Brownie – Ambassador Girl Scouts. It is also a great activity for enrichment workshops for service unit teams to build on their teamwork and problem solving skills. A trained low ropes course facilitator must accompany participants on the course.
