What is a COPE Course?
COPE stands for Challenging Outdoor Personal Experience. It comprises group initiative games, low course elements and high course elements. Some activities involve a group challenge while others test an individual’s skills and agility. Participants climb, jump, balance and swing their way to creative problem solutions though a variety of different activity problems. Group activities are ideal for emphasizing group synergy, developing trust, and leadership skills. The activities are not designed to be competitive but to stress the goals/objectives of Project COPE.
Project COPE Level 1
Level 1 Project COPE (Low Course) is a series of increasingly difficult challenges. The challenges are designed to enhance group and individual traits such as self-esteem, decision making, problem solving, trust, teamwork, communication, and leadership. Opportunity is provided for every participant to achieve success as an individual and as part of a team, and to have the thrill of a lifetime.

Who Participates in Project COPE?
Project COPE is a great tool for improving employee moral, communication, and teamwork. It is ideal for school, professional groups, business leaders, and governmental agencies as well as clubs.
Each group that uses the course has a custom program designed to address their specific needs. A minimum of two instructors are assigned to each group. These instructors will contact or meet with a group representative before you even arrive at the course to discuss your group’s needs, concerns and questions.
What Do I Need?
All equipment is provided by Project COPE. We suggest that you wear comfortable “long” pants and a long sleeved shirt (loose enough to allow freedom of movement but not baggy enough to catch in the equipment) and a good pair of athletic shoes or light boots.
