Do you know the Ropes?






If you've ever tried the TP Low Ropes Course you know it takes focus, teamwork and some trusty sidekicks. To keep the activity fresh, Children's Program Director Gen Morley, along with Chad Tyler, enjoyed a Low Ropes training class a few weeks ago at the Petra Cliffs Group site in Burlington. The program featured acclaimed presenters Mike Anderson, M.Ed, Jim Cain, Ph.D., and Jen Stanchfield, M.S., who’s years of experience in teamwork and teamplay taught our TP twosome a few new tricks of the trade!

Gen & Chad participated in twelve activities. "Everything they did was new to us," says Gen who gained a few fresh strategies for the kids program. From detangling ropes to carry cans on their feet, the class offered strategies for how to promote problem solving exercises and fun positive play, with something for everybody. So check out the newest features of the Low Ropes course this summer. “It’s so fun,” says Gen, “The biggest danger is that you might pee your pants laughing!”
