Wednesday Afternoon, August 16
Day 4 of Brothers’ Week
After getting our tickets (which we reserved on Monday) we followed the paw prints to the Explorer Package starting point.
They watched a video while waiting for their guide and other team members to arrive for their 1:00 PM appointment.
Walking toward the Paintball Targets Challenge
Their guide filling their guns and telling them the rules.
A target along the Paint Ball Course
Getting refills. Because there were only six in their group (a father and his three daughters and our boys) they went around the course three times – to the boys delight.
Next was the Archery Challenge
They were anxious to try the Climbing Tower
Listening to instructions
There were four challenges on the wall. The easy one did not need supervision, and Jesse got permission from their guide to do this while others tried the #2 and #3 challenges. The #4 challenge was too difficult for learners so nobody tried that one.
Jesse on the #3 Challenge
Jared on the #3 Challenge. He made it to the red line – success – and beyond.
Jesse on the #2 Challenge
Ian working his way toward the red line on the #3 Challenge
Success!
Lost that foot hold
Back on course again
Ian on #3 and Jared on #2
Success on #2
Ian going to the top of #2
Success!
Next was the Pedal Cart Challenge
It was the middle of the afternoon – 2:30 – when they finished and the pool was so full that they decided to have milk shakes and head for home.

Supper tonight was Jared’s choice. We ate at Lititz Family Cupboard.
