Adventure Center connects families with outdoors
Located on more than 21 acres in the Village of Creekside Park, the South Montgomery County YMCA's Outdoor Adventure Center provides a distinctive outdoor experience from other YMCA locations in the community.
North Group liaison Roxanne Davis said the Outdoor Adventure Center features amenities such as the 50-foot Alpine Tower, outdoor amphitheater, teepees, treehouses and other outdoor activities. Davis said the Alpine Tower offers a layered ropes course with trained staff, which challenges YMCA members to push themselves physically, complete with a daunting 30-foot swing.
"It's about pushing yourself to new heights and trying something new," she said. "It's about stepping out of your box and stepping out of your comfort zone."
