Area 4 Fun Event!
Whitewater Rafting and Zip Lining
Rushing water, paddles dipping into the water, and screams
of joy filled the air as Central Region Area 4 Venturers took part in
the first Area 4 Fun Event! In May, the Area 4 VOA went on an
amazing high adventure experience with an exciting weekend trip
to the New River in West Virginia. This is right where the new
Summit Betchel High Adventure Base is, so the Area 4 VOA
decided to take advantage of the slice of high adventure heaven
that is located within the area. During the weekend, Venturers from
throughout the area got to experience premier whitewater rafting
on the New River, or zip lining through the deep West Virginian
forests.
After taking part in the high adventure aspects, Venturers
took in the scenic view of the Appalachian Mountains and shared
stories with other Venturers at the closing campfire, where Area 4
presented its first ever Area Venturing Leadership Award! Due to
the hard work and planning by Area 4, the event was put on with a
largely discounted price, which enabled many more Venturers to
be able to partake in the fun! Many Venturers who attended this
event found it extremely enjoyable and look forward to numerous
more fun events to follow!
