In 2022 members of our management team and staff, Callie Murphy (Assistant General Manager), Linnea Van Manen (Asheville Treetops Adventure Park Manager), and Jordan Hisamoto (Lead Guide) attended training to receive their Challenge Course Manager (CCM) full certifications. This certification is the highest level a practitioner in the field can receive. The standards for the CCM were developed by the Association for Challenge Course Technology (ACCT), and the training was delivered by Challenge Towers, a Professional Vendor Member under ACCT. To receive the certification, practitioners must submit portfolios that outline a base requirement level of experience, attend comprehensive training, and pass a written and practical exam.

In November 2022, members of our leadership team from our Asheville Treetops Adventure Park and Education/Team Building programs attended the America Outdoors Association (AOA) conference in Orlando, Florida of which our company is a member. Also attending was our owner, Jeff Greiner, a former AOA Board Member for 10 years. Our Treetops Adventure Park Lead Guides, Jordan Hisamoto, Dan David, and Zoe Scott, and Youth Programs/Education Director, Lauren Brown, spent the week networking with other outdoor industry professionals and attending workshops geared toward supporting the longevity and success of the outdoor industry. And having a little fun at Harry Potter World!
