Activities

Ropes Course at Maryville College

Our first activity and our first real day at Oak Ridge started out with going to Maryville College. This activity was put together for both the students and staff to build teamwork, gain responsibility, cooperate with one another, and gain trust. When we got to the college we split into four groups and headed out to the woods for a hike which was soon stopped by a few short activities. After doing this we came together as one big group again and did a challenge where we needed to get people up a wall. Teamwork was a huge matter in this activity. As the Ropes Course ended everyone had seemed to have grown an appetite over their adventure so we went and ate buffet style at Maryville College and we got to know each other a little better.
