Hampton Parks and Recreation, Outdoor Recreation

Hampton Parks and Recreation’s outdoor recreation programs exist for the development of human potential through experiential challenges, reflection, and transference of that experience to everyday life. We are committed to providing a safe, inclusive, experiential environment. Programs are customized to meet your group’s goals or simply provide stimulating and fun experiences for the participants. Our programs can focus on any aspect of active learning, including communication, leadership, trust, self-confidence, respect, problem-solving, and healthy decision-making skills, environmental programming or just getting to know one another and having a great time!

The benefits are endless…
• Teaches group problem-solving skills and creative thinking
• Builds self-confidence and personal leadership skills
• Explores the value of diversity of individuals in a group
• Promotes fun in an outdoor environment
• Develops peer relationships, adult or youth
• Fosters environmental appreciation

We have a variety of course options to choose from:
• Teambuilding session
• Portable and low course
• Alpine Tower high ropes course
• Full day featuring ½ day on low course and ½ day on Alpine Tower
• Canoeing and kayaking
• Outdoor skills classes
• Environmental education

We can accommodate a variety of groups:
• A minimum of eight participants is required.
• We prefer a maximum of 18 participants in one day. We will split larger groups into more manageable sizes.
• One adult chaperone per group of fifteen youth is required.
• Our Alpine Tower is universally accessible.

You are not limited to these options. We can customize an outdoor adventure experience specific to your group’s workshop at our location or we can bring a condensed experience to your facility or training. If you are looking for additional outdoor programs, our staff can arrange other adventures appropriate for group development, such as rock climbing, canoeing and kayaking, and Leave No Trace ethics. We can also customize a 24-hour experience.
