There were 6 areas for activity choices - Adrenaline, Retro, Talent, Global, Community and Escape Zone. We did overnight hikes , sailing and the high ropes course on the ADRENALINE zone television presenting on COMMUNITY zone took part in Masterchef on the TALENT zone found out how to do backwoodsman cooking on the RETRO zone and we all visited M and D's at the ESCAPE zone!
