What is LEAP?


We are an experiential education program designed to inspire self-esteem and confidence through group cohesion development. By using outdoor adventure activities, the learner's interest is greatly enhanced while individually challenging the student to achieve her best. We promote teamwork and group problem-solving skills through activities and programs that must involve every member of the group to achieve success. Today's youth are strong and independent. We can provide the skills for these leaders of tomorrow to receive ideas from everyone within their group, work together to solve challenges, and evaluate their process to better understand group dynamics. Another one of our main goals is to begin the application of what your students learn here back to the classrooms at school.

 

Our LEAP adventure programs can provide your group with an enjoyable and meaningful experience. These programs build positive self-esteem and promote confidence for the individual through peer group support. This growth is accomplished through a combination of program design, outdoor activities, and our professional staff. Outdoor adventure skills, taught in a supportive environment, have proven to be an invaluable tool for teaching young people. Skills learned not only lead to safe enjoyment of the natural world around us, but to also encourage students to be a positive force in their community.


ACCREDITATION
The safety of our participants is the highest priority. Our risk management plan is the product of knowledge gained from years of working with youth in an adventure education setting. Camp High Rocks is accredited by the Association for Experiential Education (www.aee.org), which is a non-profit organization committed to the
safe development of experiential education in all settings.
