A major part of building personal self confidence is the establishment and development of trust. Low Elements and Initiative Problems Initiative exercises offer a series of clearly but often uniquely designed problems. Decision making, effective communication, and leadership skills are fostered in this problem solving approach to building morale and camaraderie. Participants engage each challenge as part of a group, taking advantage of each member's personal strengths. Each activity serves to break down stereotypes among peer groups, and promote an individual sense of competence and self confidence.
Some problems are more mentally challenging than physical, and vice versa.
High Ropes Elements High elements activities offer each participant an opportunity to test mental and physical limits against perceived risks in a safe atmosphere of support and caring. Our experienced guides work to familiarize each participant with the equipment and safety procedures involved, and foster the establishment of trust and the self confidence required when attempting high ropes elements. Everybody is encouraged to participate, but those not willing can assist other members of the group through certain on-ground support activities. White Water Rafting Bringing your group closer together through shared challenges is the ultimate goal of all our Youth Group adventures. White water rafting on the Kennebec River offers a true test of teamwork, trust, and camaraderie as your group navigates the turbulent rapids of the Kennebec Gorge with the assistance of experienced guides.
