DCCI Challenge Course and Facilitator Training Challenge Course: April 5-7, 2019 Ever wanted to try the Disciple Oaks challenge course but didn't have a group to attend with?

This weekend course is a high adventure outdoor program working with other adults as a team to work through interesting and unique challenges. It is fun, it is challenging, and it is rewarding. We promise that when your friends ask 'what did you do for your weekend?’ you won't have to say 'not much'. Follow this link for more information.

Facilitator Training: April 26-28, 2019 Facilitator training is scheduled for April 26 – 28. Attending the Come & Take It! Challenge Course weekend on April 5 – 7 (see above) is a prerequisite for this training weekend. During this weekend, you will build on your experience in the first weekend and learn the equipment, safety procedures, and technical aspects used in a challenge course.
