ADVENTURE CHALLENGE ACTIVITIES

ADVENTURE CHALLENGE ACTIVITIES
Climbing Wall | Screamer | Rappelling | Crate Stacking

Rocky River Ranch’s challenge elements include a 40-foot climbing tower, 25-foot natural rappelling cliff, and giant swing (aka The Screamer). These activities allow campers to experience both the challenge and success of high ropes courses. 

Our challengers classes run on with the 'challenge by choice' philosophy. This gives campers a safe and structured way to push their comfort zone and experience a new skill, while allowing them to have control of if they participate, how high they want to climb, and most importantly when they want to stop. This class not only emphasizes participation, but also team work and supporting each other.

This class is limited to those campers who are in 5th grade or older and require harnesses and helmets (provided by camp). Please read the legal information concerning the adventure classes carefully and sign the appropriate "Challengers" permission form online if your camper may take one of these classes.

Rocky River Ranch experience

 

I would not be the person I have become today if it were not for Skeet and Sandy. One of the biggest lessons I ever learned in life was from Sandy — I fell off a horse and Sandy made me get right back on. I had no idea what impact that lesson would mean to my life, but I have to say it has become one of the most valuable.

My summers at RRR were the most special times of my childhood. I have so many great memories that I'll never forget. Thanks to Rocky River, I found my true calling in life … teaching children! And, I fell in love with Wimberley so much, that I live here now!

I had a wonderful experience of being a counselor at RRR 1960-61 and 1966-67. Those first 2 years I knew and loved both Mama Knolk and Jane. Later, I was there with Skeet and Sandy. I have great memories of all those special people and all the fun times at camp. I'm so glad the camp is still going strong!

I will forever remember Rocky River Ranch as the greatest place on earth! To this day I still remember the nine summers that I spent at Rocky River Ranch. I hope to have my children experience camp as I did so many years ago.

Another favorite camp memory that lives on is the camp songs. I have sung them to my kids when they were babies … and still sing to them to wake them up in the morning ("Good morning to You!"). Last summer my daughter went to camp for the first time (at age 6). She had a great time and is looking forward to going again this summer. She sings camp songs almost daily (I'm ready for her to learn a few new ones other than "Boom Boom, Ain't it Great to be Crazy?" and "I Wish I Were a Little Bar of Soap")!

RRR gives young women the chance to excel in areas where they may not have ever had a chance to before … and an opportunity to gain self esteem and confidence. These are such amazing and important gifts that will stay with campers their entire lives. This is why RRR will forever be a "home" to its campers. A place where they feel accepted, and loved and special.
