Challenge Course

CSI Is the proud owner of the largest college campus based rope course in the world. Built to accomoodate groups from 10 to 300 in size, the course offers low elements from 12 feet to the the ground, and high elements up to 50 feet.

Each program hosted on the outdoor course is designed to approach learning in an extraordinary setting, building a foundation for the transference of new skills, language, strategies, and knowledge into the workplace and daily living. Through games, initiatives, and elements that are both physically and intellectually challenging, enhanced awareness and constructive behavior changes can result.

Our Mission

We passionately believe that true learning comes from experiencing the world around us, whether through facing personal fears, engaging in shared experiences, or discovering new adventures. Through seeing, thinking, communicating, and experiencing, we find that we gain a better understanding of ourselves, others, and how we view the world. 

That is why we've developed three extensive challenge courses (Outdoor, Indoor, and Portable) offering many individual trials and teambuilding excercises that are certain to provide challenges for everyone. 

Each program is custom designed to meet the desired learning outcomes of each group, including conflict resolution, teamwork, communication, problem-solving, and leadership development.
