Outdoor Activities

Are you one of "those" people who needs exercise every day? Or perhaps the idea of re-creation and rejuvenation by participating in outdoor activity appeals to you.

You and your family can share in the fun and exhilaration of playing at one or more of three different Outdoor Activity locations.

LIFT Outdoor Activities include lawn games such as badminton and croquette, team games such as volleyball and handball, an area for Frisbee golf, and much more.

We have access to all necessary equipment to support these activities.

Here's what is planned for the three locations:

• Station 1 Lawn Games (Horseshoes, quoits, badminton, Bocce, croquette, etc.)
• Station 2 Team Games (Volleyball, Newcomb (court 2), Team Handball)
• Station 3 Frisbee Golf
