Participant Feedback

Here are some things that past participants have to say about their experiences:

“If I had to reduce the ropes course down to a single economized phrase it would have to be that fear doesn’t have to preclude progress. Just in the past few days I have found myself going back to the top of that pole and saying to myself, “Compared to that, THIS is a piece of cake.”
- Kate, Leadership Napa Valley

“Thanks for helping us at Ropes course. I really enjoyed climbing and the activities. You really taught us teamwork and being nice. I’m also thankful for saying we could do it, when we thought we couldn’t.”
- 5th grader, Alta Heights Elementary School

"Thank you for such a fun Friday. I enjoyed all of the activities, especially the Pirate Ship. That activity really went along with DARE; Define, Assess, Respond, Evaluate. It took a great deal of teamwork.”
- 5th grader, McPherson Elementary School

"Every Student felt success and pride in their individual accomplishments and an overwhelming feeling of 'bonding' with one another through team building activities!!!"
- Ms. Garcia, Will C Wood High School Teacher

"The benefits were teaching the students life lessons through fun activities. The benefits of the activities was that they made us think through all of our plans before acting on them."
- Ms. Leone, Vanden High School Teacher
