Making an Impact: Courage Miller
Partners Challenge Course
In an effort to develop a facility that supports more dynamic and
inclusive programs, we partnered with Courage Miller Partners LLC,
a financial investment firm in Norfolk, to build the challenge course.
The Challenge Course program is designed to help meet the
unique goals of groups/organizations by utilizing challenge course
elements to create a custom sequence of mental and physical
challenges. These challenges inspire teamwork, problem solving,
communication and trust for participants.
The 13-element low ropes course encompasses a variety
of intensive activity stations which are designed to enhance
confidence; trust and personal growth through dynamic challenge
opportunities; team-building skills; and cohesiveness among
participants. Some of the features include a tilting platform, a
climbing wall, a human spider web, and multi-use area.
On April 13, 2017, the department celebrated the official opening
of the course with a ribbon cutting ceremony.
