MEDIA ADVISORY: Michigan's First Aerial Forest Adventure Park Opens August 30 in Frankenmuth

Michigan's first "aerial forest ropes park"-The Adventure Park at Frankenmuth- will celebrate its Grand Opening with a ribbon cutting, ceremonies, refreshments and free "climbs" in the trees (which include zip lines) this Friday, August 30th, beginning at 10:00 a.m., at 1375 Weiss Street in Frankenmuth. The celebration will continue all day long.

The Adventure Park is situated within five acres of forest, and features five different "aerial courses" with different challenge bridges and zip lines between tree platforms ranging from about 15 to 50 feet in the air. It is the fourth Adventure Park designed, built and operated by The Outdoor Venture Group, and one of many more the company has built for its clients over the past half dozen years.

Aerial forest parks are a highly popular family recreational activity in Europe, where thousands of these parks are currently operated. The one in Frankenmuth will be among approximately 60 currently in the United States. Aerial forest parks are a growing national trend whose popularity is sure to explode with many more parks opening nationwide within the next several years.
