A Project COPE course provides
an opportunity for every participant to achieve success as
an individual and a member of
a patrol or team. The activities are not designed to be
competitive or to be a race
against time. More important
objectives, including buildi~g
indiv idual confidence, develoµing leadership, and inspiring
coopera tion among team members,
are emphasized.

Project C.0 . P . E. stands for
"Cha l le nging Outdoor Physical
Encounters." It comprises group initiative
games, low course and high course
activities. Some of the activities involve a
group challenge while others test
individual skills and agility. Participants
climb, swing, balance, jump, rappel and
think of solutions to a variety of activities.
Most do much more than they thought
they could.
