Ropes Course

Ropes Course

Due to scheduling conflicts, the Ropes course event has been rescheduled for Friday, Sept. 28 from noon to 4pm. The course is a series of teambuilding exercises designed to encourage a supportive atmosphere among group members. It's an excellent opportunity to build a strong network of friends (as well as to challenge your fear of heights!). Those who attended last year's Ropes Course had an amazing time and loved every minute of it. There are still some spots available, so if you're interested, please sign up soon! You must be available for the whole 4 hours to participate. The sign-up sheet is in the LGBT Center.
