Universality for Challenge Course Programmers
Current research on universality in challenge course programming will be presented. Policies and procedures for operating challenge courses accessible to all populations will be discussed. Special interest will be given to preplanning on facility design, retrofitting existing courses to increase accessibility, design and modification of equipment and suggestions in facilitation techniques. Participants will get "hands on" experience with special equipment, rigging devices and games that get more people involved.
