Older Girls Group
March 14th: Bouldering at Rumbling Bald. The girls will develop their climbing skills on all the fun and challenging boulders in this magical place. We also have bouldering crashpads to keep everyone safe. This is a great sport to get into as it’s focused on precise movement, coordination and developing trust and confidence in yourself.
April 17th: Evergreen Ropes Course experience. This trip is not yet confirmed. If we are unable to do the ropes course, we will come up with another option for the day.
May 8th: Camp Grier experience. Both girls groups will be going to camp Grier for a full day of fun activities on their amazing campus. This will be a real highlight for the spring!
