Edge Reviews
Here is what some recent clients had to say about us:
- “I enjoyed figuring out the challenges with my group. Particularly the rope web where we had to lift members through.” “
- “I was watching [the students] struggle through different challenges. It was also great to see who became leaders at different challenges.”
- “The students really loved the tower – and I loved getting to do it myself for the first time! (I’ve gone many times with the 6th-graders.)”
- “We all enjoyed the alpine tower most because it was the most exciting, challenging, and engaging.”
- “We had some conflict, but it was all good conflict (disagreements we effectively communicated through).”
- “Again, [our facilitator] was fabulous! Some of the other leaders could really use seeing her leadership style and the way she interacts with and guides the kids.”
