Your safety is our number one priority at Camp Monroe, so it is our number one priority on the challenge course. Our facilitators teach spotting for the low initiatives and participants will use belay systems for the high initiatives. We use only trained facilitators for the course.  Safety gear is inspected before and after each use to ensure it is functioning properly and that there are no visible signs of wear and tear.  No participant in the low or high ropes courses will be forced to do any element.  Participants are encouraged to try each element, but this course is "challenge by choice". If someone does not feel up to the challenge of a certain element, they may choose to stop where they are on the course. Safety Procedures are in place that enable us to safely remove people from anywhere on the high ropes course.  Before the beginning of each Agogae Trail session, your facilitators will look over your release forms so that they are aware of any medical conditions that might limit your participation in certain elements.  Facilitators will also ask the group when they arrive if there are any conditions that they need to be aware of for the entire group's safety.

    Because of the unique nature of a challenge course, we want you to be fully informed. As with our horseback riding program, we ask you to sign a consent and release of liability, stating that you have been informed and are allowing your child the opportunity to choose whether or not they will participate in any Agogae Trail events.
