The First Rafting Trip of the 2021 New River Gorge National Park Rafting Season at ACE Adventure Resort

OAK HILL, W.Va. /ScoopCloud/ -- ACE Adventure Resort kicked off the New River Gorge National Park rafting season with their first rafting trip on Friday, March 26, 2021. Last year brought a welcomed increase in outdoor recreational activities such as rafting, climbing, mountain biking, as more Americans turned to outdoor vacations and reduced or eliminated foreign travel in response to the global pandemic.

Also, late in 2020, legislation was passed that designated the New River Gorge as our country's newest national park. Due to these factors, ACE Adventure Resort and other area outfitters expect to see an even greater increase in guest visitation than last year.

Bryant Baker, a River Operations Manager and Raft Guide at ACE Adventure Resort is eager to kick off the season: "Springtime is always exciting! The weather starts changing, the days get a little longer, and we all get psyched to take folks out on some amazing whitewater in the Gorge. As far as the national park status goes, I think it will pique more interest for people who have yet to visit the New River Gorge, but there are plenty who have already experienced how special this place is."

He adds, "The 2021 rafting season is about to kick off and we're excited to facilitate world class whitewater adventures in the country's newest national park, sharing this place with both first timers and those excited to come back for more."

ACE is looking forward to a booming rafting season and is excited about introducing whitewater rafting to a wider audience. In preparation for the summer an aerial park has been constructed as well as completing renovations to the Lost Paddle Bar and Grill, expanding the ACE Adventure Waterpark, building additional hiking trails, and campsites. ACE Adventure Resort looks forward to welcoming new guests and the first rafting trip of the season.

Pennsylvania Becomes Home to Brand New ‘COVID-Friendly’ Physical and Spiritual Adventure

BOILING SPRINGS, Pa. /ScoopCloud/ -- Co-owners Cody Meassick and Chris Paradysz present the opening of Adventure Explorations, a multi-disciplined, concierge adventure company using top-notch gear and guides to create custom experiences. With discovery at its heart, adventure creates extraordinary moments of clarity, truth and connection, making Adventure Explorations a safe, timely answer to the increasingly disconnected, fractured age of COVID-19. The experience is launching July 8 in Boiling Springs, Pa.

Adventure Explorations includes rock climbing, kayaking, canoeing, fly and spinner-fishing, Italian cycling, hiking, touring and team-building exercises. The adventures are all-inclusive, including gear, guides, gourmet meals, drinks and safety equipment. Adventures range between $125 and $400 per person for a four- or eight-hour experience.

"Both Chris and I felt so strongly that we were in a moment that people needed to reconnect with their own truths and their own needs," said Cody Meassick, who also serves as the company's lead guide. "We believe that nature and exploration can provide that unlike anything else."

Adventures are guided privately and conducted in groups of six or less. With comprehensive COVID-19 guidelines in place, Adventure Explorations uses a combination of both masks and social distancing to ensure maximum safety of both clients and company partners. Soon they'll have a limited line of products, including masks, available for sale on the AE website and sold directly.

Because Adventure Exploration's service is concierge-level and specialized, they create customized adventures and accommodations for participants wishing to create their own day of fun and relaxation. Others may wish to dig in deeper to develop grit and get some exercise, while still others will use the opportunity to learn about new hobbies and possibilities. For those looking for solitude and reflection without the physical activity, the company also offers a meditative experience. Accommodations are available for individuals with physical limitations and those who lack athletic experience.

"Adventure Explorations creates adventures for everyone, no exceptions," said Chris Paradysz. "We are a fully inclusive company and believe that each person has their own needs and desires: we are simply the bridge and connection between this and possibility."

Adult Summer Camp is coming to the Midwest at Camp Forever Fun

READING, Mich., Dec. 3, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Summer Camp, it's not just for kids anymore! Camp Forever Fun, the Midwest's premier all-inclusive summer camp for young adults, will run two sessions, Memorial Day weekend and Labor Day weekend, in 2016.

Over four days and three nights young adults will learn to be kids again. We'll sleep in bunk beds, wake up to the camp bells, and eat together in the mess hall. Load up on coffee; we're going to play all day! You can expect morning yoga, dodge ball, giant canoe races, tug of war, climbing wall, relaxing at the waterfront, high ropes course, face painting, capture the flag -- and much more.

At night it's time to bring out kegs of really good beer (and some wine too). Get ready for campfire concerts and s'mores, talent shows, starlight beer hikes, and awesome nightly theme parties.

"I know how hard it is to meet people, new friends or a romantic interest, after college," says camp director Joel Paul Reisig. "I produce movies for a living, I saw how quickly people make real and lasting friendships on my film sets, I knew that I could make this happen for hundreds of people at once and have a great time doing it!"

Come with a partner or friends if you like, but most people come alone, night one is all about high-energy ice breakers.

"I promise when you wake up on the first morning camp will be loaded with your friends!" There will of course also be beer. "I'm going to bring in kegs of really good beer, all brewed here in the Midwest. This isn't a frat party, we're not looking for obnoxious drunks; we're a camp for fun young professionals who want to have the best long weekend of their lives! Age is just a number, camp is forever. Come away with me to never-never land."

Camp Forever Fun is an all-inclusive experience with housing, food, alcohol, activities, new friends, and unlimited memories all included in the price of your ticket. Registration is now open at http://campforeverfun.com/.

Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CampForeverFun/.

Camp Forever Fun, we come as strangers but leave as friends.

Participation limited to adults over 21 with valid ID.
