  • All participants must be a part of a pre-arranged Synergo program.

Chaperones and/or Group Leaders are responsible for the behavior of the group members during the program as well as any non-program times like meal breaks or time on the grounds before and after the program.

  • Activities chosen for the program are based on the facilitator’s assessment of the group’s goals, needs, behaviors and logistics. Certain activities cannot be guaranteed depending on logistics and/or facilitator judgment.

  • Participants may not use personal safety gear (harnesses or helmets) and must be able to fit into provided safety gear (generally 10 years old and up).

FAQ’s:

  • You’ll want to wear closed-toe shoes and weather appropriate clothing. During the summer season we recommend longer shorts or pants to help make the harness more comfortable.

  • We suggest you bring a water bottle and a snack—days on the challenge course are active and a snack can help keep your energy up. Some other good things to have with you: sunscreen, bug spray and an extra coat or sweatshirt.

  • Yes! Everyone participating will need a completed Participant Agreement. You can find one: here.

  • Most of our courses are in areas with limited or no service. You’ll want to be prepared to be disconnected during your time on the challenge course.

  • We can do the challenge course in all kinds of weather, including the snow! However, if the weather becomes unsafe (electrical storm, windstorm, extreme heat, etc.) we will cancel or reschedule the program.
