Our Beanstalk Forest is designed to cultivate the curiosity of inner strength and goal-setting. By playing around in the trees, our young adventurers take healthy risks and transfer the lessons to their lives. Over the 8 club sessions, participants will learn to how to fit and use their gear, execute the proper commands of the Beanstalk Forest, how to lower participants from the high ropes course and practice belay rescue techniques. This club is open to 4th-8th grade students that are willing to listen, learn, and apply climbing and ropes course skills.
For the motivated climber, our leaders can even support your ropes course guide certification (belay-certification is a prerequisite). This is one of Evergreen’s hardest certifications to earn - ropes course guide spots are limited, with opportunities to help Evergreen Summer Adventures this summer!
