Challenge Programs for Professional Organizations

Challenge activities serve businesses and professional organizations by providing leadership training and professional development through immediate experiential opportunity in the areas of Teamwork/Team building, Problem-solving, Communication, Trust, and Risk-taking.

The staff at the PEAK Outdoor Center meets with organizational leaders prior to developing a program to identify the needs of the organization and to establish goals that may be achieved through a Challenge program.

After identifying goals, a program is developed and submitted for review by organizational leaders. The program includes a list of activities and related objectives, an itinerary of activities and events, and a brief explanation of how the program meets the needs of the organization.

Programs are designed to combine fun, adventure and challenge. Participants are strongly encouraged to become involved in all activities. However, individuals have the right to determine their own degree of involvement throughout the program. An organization must complete and return to PEAK a Program contract, and determine the final number of participants seven days before the scheduled program. The organization must also provide a Certificate of Insurance naming Heathwood Hall as an additional insured prior to the program. All participants must complete and sign an Assumption of Risk form. These forms may be completed in advance and returned to the PEAK Outdoor Center prior to the program, or they may be completed prior to beginning the program on the scheduled date.
