BUILD A CUSTOMIZED SCHEDULE
To ensure an enjoyable stay for your group, start by planning your schedule. At the minimum include these basics:
- Determine times for events, meeting or special programs.
- Determine times for recreation and relaxation.
- Make note of preferred meal times.
- Allow sufficient transition time between meals, meetings, programs, events and recreation. Typically groups transition in 10-15 minutes; though some groups need more time. This gives participants time to take care of personal needs; and helps the next activity / meal start on time.
- Allow time for our staff to open an activity area after a meal. Confirm detail with the Outdoor Center Director.
Contact us for further help and guidance in creating a schedule that meets your group needs and goals. To best serve you, please finalize your group schedule with us at least two weeks prior to your group’s arrival.
