Extreme Adventure/ Deathdefying!!!!

Today I got to expierence the adrenaline rush of climbing the rock wall at the ARC. It was like something out of a movie, I was hanging there off of a ledge and just straining to find a spot to grab. I found one and was able to continue climbing. Unfortunately it was only like 15 feet up the wall before Mr. Smith told us to come down. So I did all of the call signs and came down. I cannot wait to do it again!

Bowling- Hittin the Pins Hard!

I haven't gone bowling in about a month and am starting to feel the itch again. Unfortunately Slippery Rock Lanes is only open during certain hours of the week and I usually work during those hours. I know there is another bowling alley in Grove City and may try there this weekend to try them out. I have bowled in the past and consider it a fun thing to do if you have nothing else to do! You can also get pretty competitive with your friends and have a blast! So go out with your friends, relax, and enjoy a good old game of bowling!

Rock Climbing

Today in my Outdoor Pursuits class we practiced tying figure 8 knots and backup knots. We also learned how to a tie bite and double bite figure 8 knots. We practiced the commands of climbing and belaying in which the climber and belayer will communicate to eachother to successfully climb up the wall. We also learned how to properly check our equiptment so that we may climb safely and without resulting in a serious injury. Towards the end of class we all got to practice belaying and using the proper method so that the climber does not fall.
