RING HOMESTEAD CAMP HAS BEEN FAMILY OWNED SINCE 1978. WE OFFER CHILDREN AND ADULTS OF ALL AGES A VARIETY OF OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES THAT PROMOTE FUN, SAFETY AND EDUCATION. AMONG THE ACTIVITIES THAT ARE OFFERED, WE ARE MOST KNOWN FOR OUR "OUTDOOR ROPES CONFIDENCE COURSE".  TYPICALLY THE SESSION RUNS FOR FOUR HOURS.  HOWEVER, WE CAN CUSTOMIZE YOUR VISIT TO FIT YOUR SPECIFIC NEEDS. DURING THE VISIT, THE PARTICIPANTS ENGAGE IN ACTIVITIES THAT CHALLENGE THEM BOTH PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY.  THEY ALSO PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR BUILDING TEAM SPIRIT, COLLABORATING, INCREASING SELF ESTEEM, IMPROVING SELF-CONFIDENCE AND DEVELOPING PROBLEM SOLVING STRATEGIES.



WE HAVE OVER FORTY ACTIVITIES, CONTAINING BOTH HIGH AND LOW ELEMENTS, TO CHALLENGE PARTICIPANTS. THE COURSE IS INSPECTED EVERY YEAR AND IS FULLY INSURED. EXAMPLES OF SOME ACTIVITIES INCLUDE: "DANGLE DOO", "ROPE LADDER", "CARGO NET", "TWO STRAND BRIDGE" AND "ZIP LINE". SOME ACTIVITIES ALLOW FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO CLIMB TREES AND REPEL FROM HIGH WIRES. WHEN THE PARTICIPANTS ARRIVE, THEY ARE BROKEN INTO GROUPS AND ASSIGNED A HIGHLY TRAINED FACILITATOR (GUIDE).  THE ADVENTURE IS ON!



AS THE STUDENTS START SCHOOL EACH YEAR, TEACHERS ARE FACED WITH THE ONGOING PROBLEM OF HOW TO  "REACH" EACH CHILD IN THE CLASSROOM, SO THAT HE OR SHE CAN LEARN THE SKILLS NEEDED TO MEET THE EVER CHALLENGING NEW YORK STATE STANDARDS. LET US SHOW YOU HOW THE ROPES COURSE AND TEAM BUILDING ACTIVITIES WILL ACCOMODATE MULTIPLE INTELLEGENCES AND VARIOUS LEARNING STYLES.
