FIELD TRIPS
Boone Creek Outdoors offers a variety of experiences for all age groups. For a younger group the Daniel Boones Challenge is a great experience. A self guided challenge course with 16 different obstacles and two levels of difficulty this is a great option for a day of fun. The zipline Canopy tour is a little more adventurous with 6 ziplines (the longest of which is 1400 ft), 3 suspended bridges, a spiral staircase, a floating staircase and a rappel this makes for a thrilling event. This can take up to 2 ½ hours depending on the size of your group. You can also opt to just do the first 3 ziplines and then rappel off the course if you require a shorter experience.

Zipline Lesson Plan
FUN FACTS
Your experience on a zip line course actually all comes down to science. For example, if you want to go faster, tuck your knees and arms in to make your body as small as possible and reduce friction. If you want to slow down, spread your body out like a star to increase the force of the air slowing you down.
Ask your students to guess who will go faster, people who weigh more or less, and then test your hypothesis and figure out why (think potential energy). Finally, practice steering by using the torque from your wrist and your momentum. Don’t hesitate to ask your guide to explain how the course works.

FIELD TRIPS
Boone Creek Outdoors offers a unique program for scouts to come and earn some badges. Our volunteer program allows scouts to come out and help us remove invasive species and with 8 hours of work they can get a free zipline canopy tour. The badges they can earn could include Environmental Conservation, Forester, Naturalist, and others. Invasive species have become a problem to the local ecosystem, and we love having scouts out to help us tackle this issue.
