Challenge Course Design, Installation and Inspection

The Facilitated Build

Developing Your Challenge Course

A challenge course should never be confused with a program; it is simply a tool.  We use tools to be able to work beyond what we can deliver with just our hands, our hearts and our heads.

When developing a new challenge course, it is possible to miss the subtle details that lead to the effectiveness of the program and the potential for expansion.  Simply picking a list of cool elements and a big flashy tower to draw people to your site will not guarantee the success of your operation.  Yes, you will get lots of calls and when you build it they will come.  But in time, you will feel the growing sense that something is missing;  that there is more to it than what shows on the surface.  Start with that end in mind.

The following services guide the creation of a challenge course program, ensuring the most value in terms of safety, efficient use of limited funds and development of a high quality program.

Design & Bid Development

This service includes guidance for element selection, layout and a truly competitive bid that ensures that all parties are bidding on exactly the same design and that you get the lowest bid possible.

Challenge Course Installation

Leahy & Associates provides quality challenge course installation of a number of operating systems for both common elements and adaptations that specifically address the delivery of facilitated program models.

Safety Inspection & Repair

The Safety Inspection looks at the physical structure of the challenge course and related safety equipment to catch and repair hazards before they become problems.

Program Safety Review

The Program Safety Review will identify the strengths of your program and any areas of concern.  This, in turn, increases the safety and efficiency of your program.
