Portable Climbing Wall, Rope-A-Phobia, Dunk Tank and Team Challenge Program. Programs On The Go was created to reach school and or
corporate groups that would like to have a team challenge, group bonding, trust and team building activities brought to them. Whether at a
school, park or work place we can create a travel program that best fits your needs. The portable rock climbing wall offer four climbing stations and a realistic climbing surface. It is specifically designed to look and feel like rock without using an abrasive wall surface so that you
can accommodate the full range of climbers. The ROPE A PHOBIA® encourages interaction, imagination, and fun. It provides a physical
challenge and a psychological challenge (overcoming the fear of heights). It offers an extreme playground for exploring your limits. It facilitates group interaction and is ideal for team and trust building exercises. Dunk tanks have been delighting crowds for years. The concept of
dunking the boss at the company picnic, or dunking the local "celebrity" at fundraiser events has become an American pastime. Book your
event today!
