Challenge Course

TEAM BUILDING FOR GROUPS OF ALL KINDS At Life Adventure Center we recognize the value of a unified team.

A successful team is a group of many hands, but one mind. We know that the process of reaching that unity can be a challenge. We give your group the tools they need to become a more effective team.

THE CHALLENGE COURSE WAS THE BEST WAY TO STRENGTHEN OUR GROUP AND FORM TRUSTING, WORKING RELATIONSHIPS. -Madison County Youth Service Center Coordinator

With our facilitators, your team will explore their individual and group strengths and discover that they each play an important role in your team's success.

Unbridled Vaulting Club of Life Adventure Center Vaulting is best described as gymnastics and dance performed in harmony on the back of a moving horse. Vaulting is the fastest growing and the safest equestrian sport in the U.S.A. Vaulting uses the lunger/ horse team to enhance communication and trust. It also emphasizes fitness as participants do un-mounted strength, endurance, and balance activities.

Open Vaulting is an opportunity to try your hand at the sport during an open lesson format.

Held on the Saturday of every month from 4:30-6:30, registration is required and fills up quickly. If interested call 859.873.3271 or email

Summer Camps Adventure Seekers Wanted We believe in the power of transformational experiences.

In the life of a child, few moments come with more potential to change the course of a child's life than a summer camp. That's why we take such care to design our camps to engage and educate each child. Your young Adventure Seeker will enjoy a variety of outdoor activities as well as gain personal confidence, build new relationships, and learn life changing new skills! Possible adventure activities include: archery, challenge course, tomahawk throwing, giant slip and slide, canoeing, orienteering, fire building,

outdoor skills, whittling, horsemanship, equestrian vaulting, and SO MUCH MORE! By participating in these challenges every camper has the chance to grow and develop. It's not just a day camp, it's ADVENTURING! Every camper leaves more confident, more aware of possibilities in their future, and more capable to meet challenges. In the woods and on the water, we provide age appropriate skills and knowledge for each camper.

All of our activities provide opportunities for growth through personal challenge.

LIFE ADVENTURE CENTER

WARRIOR ADVENTURE PROGR AMS

Helping those who have sacrificed so much.

The Warrior Adventure Program of the Life Adventure Center creates an environment where injured service members and their families build relationships and interact as a part of a healthy community. By allowing these men and women to do something they love, and at the same time continue to build their community, this program helps wounded veterans heal.

There is no doubt in my mind, this program is saving lives.

-Soldier Participant of 2012 program

TO SUPPORT OR LEARN MORE ABOUT THE WARRIOR ADVENTURE PROGRAMMING VISIT LIFEADVENTURECENTER.ORG OR CALL OUR OFFICE AT 859.873.3271.

BYRON@LIFEADVENTURECENTER.ORG.

THE LAC WARRIOR ADVENTURE PROGRAM WAS ESTABLISHED OUT OF A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN KENTUCKY DEPT. OF FISH AND WILDLIFE, HUNTERS FOR THE HUNGRY, AND KENTUCKY UTILITIES TO DEVELOP A HEALING ADVENTURE FOR INJURED SERVICE MEN AND WOMEN. The event was best summed up by one Wounded Veteran who said, “This event changed our lives; it helped revive our spirits and renew our sense of self-worth.” Another warrior stated that we were, in fact

“saving lives”. These injured servicemen and women participate in activities despite the challenges that they are currently facing.

Men and women who took up the call to national service put themselves in harm's way.

Those men and women, having returned home, are still in danger.

As recently as 2012, studies found that an average of 22 veterans take their own life every day. Two out of three families report adjustment problems following military service, and 76% of veterans

report symptoms of mental health disorders to health care providers. As their service for us ends, our service for them needs to begin.

Since the late 1800's LAC has established a rich history of serving

the community with a speacial focus on supporting underserved youth.

Life Adventure Center emerged after a historic encounter between The Cleveland Home and Life Adventure Camp. The Cleveland Home operated as an orphanage in Versailles beginning in the late 1800’s, ultimately serving as a residential facility for 17 females. Established in 1975, Life Adventure Camp instilled self-esteem and confidence in at-risk youth through wilderness experiences.

Life Adventure Camp and The Cleveland Home merged in 2001.

Five years later we moved to our current location. In 2006, our name changed to Life Adventure Center of the Bluegrass, and in the summer of 2013, we began the management of the Buckley Wildlife Sanctuary in Frankfort, Ky. With our current locations, we serve a much larger and more diverse audience in and around the bluegrass

than ever before.

This year we will be expanding our existing challenge course experience with the addition of 4 all new high ropes elements and a brand new free standing climbing element that ends with a zip line.

Paintball The Life Adventure Center is in the process of building a paintball course that will provide an all new challenge to our team building experience.

Mission Statement Life Adventure Center programs transform lives by enhancing growth, improving communication, and building resiliency for both individuals and groups, especially underserved youth through professionally supervised outdoor group challenges and shared reflection opportunities.

Values statement We are committed to making both the emotional and physical safety and well-being of children and families a priority.

We believe individuals learn best about themselves and others when physical challenge is combined with directed reflection that allows for personal introspection.

We believe every individual deserves to be treated with respect and dignity regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation,ability, religion, color, family status, marital status and life circumstances.

We aspire to maintain programs with high standards of community and social responsibility.

We are committed to teaching appreciation for all living things and an understanding about the interdependent relationships within the natural environment while encouraging sustainability principles.

We Were able to grow a little closer, dig a little deeper, and heal a little more! Not to mention all the laughs and fun!
