Where to Go and What to Bring
We’ll assemble at the time indicated on your contract in the parking lot of the Conference Center as we begin our ropes adventure.   Please bring your signed release form.

For your safety, leave jewelry (rings, watches, necklaces, ear rings), pagers, and cell phones at home or in your car.

Comfortable, layered clothing and sturdy sneakers or hiking boots are recommended.  Avoid nylon shorts and open-toed shoes. You may want a hat, bug repellant, or a water bottle. Water will be provided throughout the day, as will lunch and an afternoon drink break.

Weather
If rain is predicted, bring a poncho if you wish. We do not cancel for weather unless the safety of our groups or facilitators is compromised.  If rain turns into a thunderstorm, we’ll seek shelter away from the ropes and trees.  All cancellations are at the discretion of our staff.

Physical Concerns and Challenge by Choice
Concerned about whether you’re physically up for this adventure? Gravatt’s ropes course is designed for using the team’s brains and collective brawn to reach goals. Almost anyone can participate in the Adventure and Discovery Center programs, even people with physical disabilities.  Please let our staff know if you have concerns of which we should be aware.

Gravatt practices Challenge by Choice: participants choose their own level of participation, and staff and group members support participants as they decide how and when to move in and out of their own comfort zones.

Safety
Worried about safety? The course was built by professionals in this business, is inspected monthly, and all equipment regularly maintained.  Gravatt's staff is highly trained to custom design your experience.  All facilitators participate in on-site continuing education in facilitation and safety and have additional certifications in First Aid and CPR.
