Description: Where groups become teams, strangers become friends, and individuals transform...

Team Discovery at Coloma Outdoor Discovery School is devoted to the delivery of learning experiences that motivate people to go beyond their perceived boundaries, to work with others, to solve problems, and to achieve success both individually and within a group.

What is a ropes challenge program? A ropes challenge program is a series of facilitated problem-solving tasks or events. Some are group events, others offer individual challenges from the ground-level, to more ambitious heights. All require a combination of trust, support, commitment, and teamwork from everyone involved.
