Introduction
The High Flight Adventures Advanced Camp is designed to build on previous camps and trade inexperience for confidence, develop self esteem through achievement and to develop leadership. The High Flight Adventures Advanced Camp provides an atmosphere for mature students to become totally immersed in the world of flight. Ground instruction and introductory recreational flight experiences highlight this meaningful, action-packed camp. It combines "in-the-air" and "on-the-ground" hands-on activities. The High Flight Adventures Advanced Camp also includes full participation as a volunteer (access to forums, flight-line and all associated activities) in The Classic Air Rally , held August 23rd and 24th, 2008. .flightworks.ca

The Classic Air Rally will provide an exciting element to the Camp program. The exhibits, aircraft and air shows provide an aviation and personal experience without equal
Special activities may include opportunities to become an integral part of the Classic Air Rally Volunteer group. Without volunteers (high school volunteer credits eligible), these wonderful shows could not function, as a volunteer you may shadow ground crew, management, or even the Air Boss.
In the evening programs listen to veteran pilots speak of our aviation history
As a bonus, weather permitting, a free, 20 minute ride in an authentic Warbird. (Videoed and put on DVD to take home)

Leadership development through physical activity

Challenge Course Initiatives
Initiatives are activities that provide a group of campers a framework to become a stronger team. The group benefits by offering the individual a chance to develop new and enriched skills. How does this work? Participants are asked to work together to accomplish many goals. Through the process of reaching their goals, the group learns how to cooperate, problem solve, think creatively, communicate effectively, and manage conflict. As the group progresses, an attitude of care, concern, and trust for each person overpowers the need for competition and rivalry. The insights gained from the Challenge Course initiatives can be then transferred to real life situations.
