Course 
We have three unique challenge courses available for troops to
use!
- What levels? Girl Scout Juniors and above for all high ropes courses; Girl Scout Brownies are permitted on the low ropes courses.
- Reservation? Varies. See below.
- What Camp? Crowell (low and high elements), May Flather (low elements only), and White Rock (low and high elements).
- Facilitators/Trainings? Paid facilitators are available on certain weekends for troop reservations and Service Unit Encampments (SUEs) throughout the spring, summer (White Rock SUEs only), and fall at Camp Crowell as well as at Camp White Rock’s high ropes aerial course. Paid facilitators are not provided for Camp White Rock’s low ropes course or Camp May Flather. To use the low ropes courses at these two camps, you must have a low-ropes certified facilitator.
Camp Crowell: At the Camp Crowell challenge course, girls can improve their teambuilding skills, better learn how to problem solve, and leave their comfort zone through various high and low elements.
Troops have 2 options for reserving the Crowell Challenge Course:
- Low elements only with a facilitator provided: This reservation is for a 1.5-hour block and costs $120. A maximum of 20 participants are allowed, and participants must be Girl Scout Brownie level or above
- Low and high elements with a facilitator provided: This reservation is for a 3-hour block and costs $275. A maximum of 20 participants are allowed, and participants must be Girl Scout Junior level or above.
*TROOPS WISHING TO USE THE CHALLENGE COURSE AT CAMP CROWELL MUST USE COUNCIL PROVIDED FACILITATORS. In the event that Council is unable to secure facilitators, a full refund will be issued.
- Low ropes activities will be determined by the facilitators and will depend on the level of the girls as well as ability. The low ropes challenge course is meant to be a progressive series of challenges that encourages troops to problem solve and work together to grow as a team.
- If you are a small troop and interested in the ropes course but would like to defray the cost, the best option is to reserve the course first and then reach out to other troops. Try the Outdoor and High Adventure Rallyhood first, and if you still have not found a troop to join you, please reach out to the camping department.
- Reservations can be made through the link above. Reservations open exactly 3 months out.
Camp White Rock: At the Camp White Rock challenge course, Girl Scouts Junior level and above can test their limits and challenge themselves on our aerial high ropes course. Trained facilitators lead all adventures on the aerial course. Troops can also bring their own facilitator and try out the low ropes course at Camp White Rock (Girl Scout Brownie level and above).
Camp White Rock’s High Ropes Aerial Course
- Our exciting aerial course is shaped like a figure eight, with
a moderate option and a more challenging route. There are multiple
bridges offering different obstacles including a cargo net, raider
bridge, vine walk, and wobbly beam. The course connects at several
points, allowing girls to switch from one side to another and try
out all the obstacles.
- Girls enter the course by completing a staple climb, similar to climbing a ladder. Girls are clipped into a belay system from the moment they leave the ground.
- Girls can finish the course by taking the 300-foot zipline down to the ground, or by climbing down.
- The aerial course can be reserved in 3-hour time blocks for a maximum of 20 participants for $320.00. Trained facilitators are included with the reservation.
- If you are a small troop and interested in the aerial high ropes course but would like to defray the cost, the best option is to reserve the course first and then reach out to other troops. Try the Outdoor and High Adventure Rallyhood first, and if you still have not found a troop to join you, please reach out to the camping department.
