Recreational Opportunities
No day is complete at the Joe C. Davis YMCA Outdoor Center, without an opportunity to go outside and have some fun. We offer a wide variety of activities to enhance any retreat or event.
Bank of America Alpine Tower:
Reach for the sky as you choose your route and ascend to the top of this 50' climbing tower. Do it again and again, the experience will never be the same twice.
Giant Swing:
Soar to your hearts content on this oversized swing that is sure to make you scream and laugh at the same time.
Zip Line:
Take a wild ride down our Zip Line.
Chairman's Water Park and Spraygrounds:
There is no better way to cool off on a warm summer day than a dip in our exciting pool with fountains, slides and two very unpredictable Palm Trees.
Lakefront Beach: 
Our beach offers swimming, canoeing, kayaking, two 150' Wet Willy Water Slides, and the ever popular Blob.
Bridgestone/Firestone Waterfront Park:
Boating enthusiasts will be sure to enjoy a peaceful cruise on a Pontoon Boat or a fast and furious trip around the lake on our Banana Boat.
High Ropes Course:
This course promotes problem solving, communication and listening skills, conflict resolution, and an appreciation of fellow workers as partners dependent upon each other throughout the course. Participants will experience a high-adrenaline, exciting way to discover untapped resources and strengths.
Group Initiatives:
These ground level challenges are designed to utilize teamwork, placing group goals above of the individual. Each initiative helps establish a basis of trust, communication, and teambuilding
Team Tree House:
Several team members combine their efforts to climb the corporate ladder to the top or our 50' tree house. It's an exciting way to overcome self-imposed limitations as participants work together to support and hoist one another to the top.
Mt. Widji Team Climb:
Team members will be tethered together as they ascend our second climbing tower. Because the participants are linked together, they must work together to accomplish their goal. Participants must also rely on their teammates, as they are the ones belaying the climbers.
Archery Range:
Make sure you remain on target.
NewsChannel5 Airnasium:
An open-air basketball facility for you to achieve your hoop dreams. This facility is equipped with lighting for evening use
