Inaugural DINO Adventure
Day Camp for kids 8-16. We will be

kayak/canoe, climb and orienteer. Go

June 20,
2005: The First Annual DINO
Adventure Day Camp was a great day! We
had almost a full attendance of 50 kids and
the smiles were everywhere. Look for a
larger event next year with the addition of
possibly another adventure sport!
July
9-14th, 2005: Adventure Athlete goes to
Switzerland and France to cheer Lance on to
his 7th win! We started our day at
Courchevel with a hike/scramble up to 10,000
ft for lunch and then came down the mountain
to see the stage 10 finish. It was the
day that Lance won back the yellow jersey
and kept if for the remainder of the
Tour. We then got up the next day to
see the ceremonial start of stage 11.
What a time!
August,
2006: We put on a two-event
program for our client, Irvin-Rogers Brick
and Block. The first was a Friday
orienteering course for sales staff and
employees to build teams and camaraderie in
Cool Creek Park. Then, a week later,
we set a map/compass and GPS orienteering
event on White River for sales staff and
clients to compete in locating checkpoints
as a team. The teams had to located
the checkpoints, choose the correct puzzle
piece for their team, and be the first to
arrive at the end to complete their puzzle.
Despite the snake and dirt, we all had a
blast!
Fall, 2005
- Winter, 2006: Adventure Athlete
has acquired land through its sister
company, Whispering Wind Ranch, to further
expand its offerings and to allow us to meet
the needs of our clients' corporate training
and adventure needs. We now have 45
acres in Montgomery county with trails and
will be constructing a Lodge and Barn
meeting areas in 2006!
The year
2006 was spent working on Whispering Wind
Ranch while working events in between
construction.
July,
2006: We conducted the second DINO
Adventure Day Camp to a continued increased
success. More kids, more activities
and more fun! This is a great day to
remember the days of our youth when it was
much more easy to get out!
The
remainder of 2006 saw some corporate
activities at "The Ranch" as we concluded
construction and hosted Truth at Work (www.truthatwork.org)
for their annual Board of Advisors retreat.
An orienteering event was planned, but the
weather changed that. So, we met, ate
and built good memories teaching some skeet
shooting!
July,
2007: Adventure Athlete is on the
move! We are relocating to the year-around sports Mecca of the northern Midwest.
That is none other than Traverse City,
Michigan. Check us out there as we
will have more offerings for kayaking,
mountain biking, trail running and hiking.
Additionally, with individuals that kiteboard, surf, etc., there will be
different workouts for the different outdoor
sports enthusiasts and hard-core
competitors alike! Contact us at
