STORRS, Conn. - Oct. 5, 2020 - The Adventure Park at Storrs, CT, an outdoor aerial adventure park with zipline and ropes courses, announced the addition of an axe-throwing activity outdoors.
Axe-throwing has taken off over the years. As part of another way for people to enjoy the outdoors, the Park set up three axe-throwing lanes for people to enjoy with social distancing protocols in place. Participants can rent lanes for up to 5 people in 60-minute increments. To get started, an axe-throwing coach provides instructions and is available throughout each session. The age requirement is 12 years old, and for children aged 12-18, an adult who is also a participant must accompany the child.
"We know people are enjoying the outdoors more than ever right now. We're thrilled to offer this new outdoor activity for our guests," said Candie Fisher, VP of Sales and Marketing for The Adventure Park. "Axe throwing is a fun way to relieve stress while getting your body moving and working on hand-eye coordination. Our guests can take part in this unique activity outdoors, where people can easily social distance and be in the fresh air, all while enjoying the beautiful fall weather."
To provide guests with a preview of the outdoor axe throwing experience, The Adventure Park at Storrs is offering free axe throwing in 30 minute increments on Sunday October 11. Participants will get a safety briefing and then have the opportunity to try out their throwing skills. Lane availability is first come first serve, and briefings will run every 30 minutes.
In addition to axe throwing, The Adventure Park at Storrs has long been a popular outdoor attraction for families, friends and groups. The aerial adventure park experience combines ziplining and climbing for adults and children. Axe throwing was added to the Park's offering in September. Advance reservations are recommended for all activities at The Adventure Park.
