In X-Camp, teamwork is taught through various activities such as archery, canoeing, crafts, team sports, and time spent at Area 51 - our high and low ropes course. Life skills are learned from wilderness survival training, camping on an overnight campout, and through first aid and water safety skills. In the end, put it all to the test. Do you have the stamina to complete our "Survivor" style campout challenge? Will you be the one to lead your team to victory? Come and claim your prize at X-Camp!
Cost includes meals, lodging, field trips, materials, and activities.
From backpacking, camping, and climbing to kayaking, canoeing, and first aid X-Camp offers many activities which match Boy Scouts of American requirements for badges. Those are just a few of our activities which offers ways to complete BSA merit badge requirements.
LEADERSHIP IN A FUN ENVIRONMENT!
X-Camp is built around leadership in the great outdoors! We want to give kids a fun and exciting week at camp while teaching them valuable lessons that will help them succeed in the world around them. Each day their college age counselors will encourage and challenge campers to try new things and dare to dream big dreams. From climbing a 42 foot tower and leaping off of the Zip-Line to outdoor camping and leadership classes X-Camp is built to give confidence to any camper.
HIGH ROPES COURSE
Are you ready for some outdoor excitement that allows for personal achievement and team support? Want to climb, repel, slide and leap through the air to experience the exhilaration of accomplishing something you never thought you could? If so, X-Camp's high rope facility is for you!
CHALLENGES INCLUDE:
The Climbing Tower
The Climbing Tower soars 42-feet and involves three very different experiences: Climbing Wall, Repel Platform and 380- foot Zip Line. X-Campers will climb the steeply-inclined wall individually or tethered together in 2 to 3 person-groups. Then, either repel off the platform or slide down the zip line to reach terra-firma. Relying on others for support, communication and attention to detail is critical for ultimate success.
The Pole
This event requires participants to climb a 32-foot pole, stand on the top and ultimately leap off the edge to reach a suspended rope. Whew! Makes the heart race! Think of the emotions you will feel while climbing the pole (yes, you can do this!), balancing on top of the pole (wow!), feet on the edge (gulp!), focusing on the objective (smile!)...you've come this far...your team is encouraging you from below...can you reach for it?
