  • ADVENTURE PARK AT THE CAPE with ZIP LINES

Cape Henry Racquet Club will be adding an ADVENTURE PARK with three (3) Zip Lines by Easter 2019.

There will be seven (7) elevated trails located in the wooded area next to the East Court with Zip Lines going across the three (3) outdoor tennis courts to a landing pad near the water area behind the indoor tennis building.

Recently Cape Henry Racquet Club manager, Beth Gregory, tested various zip lines and elevated trails.

Participants of the Adventure Park will be educated on tennis etiquette and tennis players will have the opportunity to call lets if a Zip Liner interferes with play.

The Adventure Park at The Cape will be great for groups events, environmentally friendly, and builds self-confidence.

Email Darryl Cummings darryl@cummingsathletics.com for naming right and sponsorship opportunities for the Adventure Park at The Cape.
