This is the 4th installment of our ‘In a Nutshell’ series which tells you about the many activities and programs that we have available.
In case you weren’t aware, Camp Kawartha offers team building opportunities for visiting groups including businesses, not-for-profits, corporations and community groups.
Using our climbing wall, high rope adventure courses and low ropes we teach teams about leadership, team building skills, trust, commitment, positive communication and the value of striving. Much of our philosophy comes from Outward Bound’s “edgework.”
If you stop and think about your most inspiring learning moment, it probably wasn’t when you were comfortable and complacent. Mostly likely you were a bit scared and needed to be encouraged – In the end though, aren’t you glad you persevered? The “edge” is the place that you needed to cross – to feel that sense of accomplishment.
By the same way, if we put people in places where they are a bit uncomfortable (for example dangling from a climbing rope 30 feet in the air), and if they feel the support of their peers and if they feel taken care of, they will accomplish amazing things. And they can use this as a metaphor for so much more in their life.
If you are interested in participating with a group in our Team Building Experiences, contact our staff here at Camp Kawartha. We’d be happy to take you to the edge! You can participate in team building here at the main camp, or we can come to your place of business with a whole series of challenging and fun team building activities.
