How did Shamineau
Adventures get
its start? |
|
Shamineau Adventures
began with the High Ropes Course in 1994.
The Ropes Course was designed and built by
Project Adventure; Shamineau staff assisted
in the construction. Funding was
provided by the state of Minnesota through
the Pillager School System. The Low
Ropes Course, a grouping of teambuilding
initiatives, was also added in 1994.
In 1995, an ice climbing tower was designed
and built, which has now been developed into
a 42 foot, six sided pinnacle. During
the summer of 1999, the 32 foot indoor
climbing wall was constructed.
Shamineau Adventures has also been guiding
climbing trips for several years both to
local crags and out of state. |
