Overview

Bond Park Challenge Course offers an outdoor experience that goes beyond recreation. It is a team-focused environment where guests work together to achieve goals through interactive activities. While often referred to as a 'ropes course,' the course may not always include ropes, but always emphasizes teamwork. Whether it's a high adventure thrill or a school field trip, Bond Park provides opportunities for team development and memorable experiences.

A mid-large sized park with plenty of running/biking trails and a lake with easy access for rafting (which can also be rented at the boathouse). The lake trail is nice (a 2 mile loop that goes through around the lake and through some hilly, knobbly terrain). Parking for easy access to trails is available at the community center and the boathouse (which also has a nice boardwalk + picnicking area)

Event was very well handled for being such a huge sample in the area. Only complaint is lack of seating areas for both eating and handicapping conditions like my mother has.

This is a great park. We did the pedal boat with our 5 year old and had an awesome time. The canopy wouldn't stay up but oh well. We also did one of the short trails and the playground. We don't live close by but will definitely be making the trek across the county again sometime soon.
