Three ideas on streamlining operations for ultimate efficiency
By Don Stock
Challenge courses are an important part of many camp programs. And constructing, maintaining, and staffing them are a big investment. Much of that ongoing cost involves the gear and equipment used to operate the course. Helmets, harnesses, ropes, carabiners, lanyards, and zip-line trolleys are expensive. They have a limited, usable lifespan under the best circumstances. But that lifespan can be even further reduced due to poor gear care and storage. Every year, challenge-course inspectors are forced to retire gear and equipment prematurely because they were not properly cared for or were stored in a way that the environment or a system contributed to premature degradation.
