Warrior Adventure Quest

Warrior Adventure Quest is a free, one-day, adventure program that is available for redeploying units. Each Soldier may participate in one of the following activities: introductions to SCUBA, paintball, or extreme ziplining. We offer two programs a day and can accomodate up to 30 participants per program.

This program is designed to push Soldiers out of their comfort zone and demonstrate safe and constructive ways to reach the high level of adrenaline that is commonly missed from deployment. This program focuses on teamwork that can be used both on the battlefield and on the homefront. For more information contact brittany.beadle@us.army.mil
