Facilitating Outdoor Activities
Many of our outdoor offerings can be enjoyed by groups on their own; however, activities like the High and Low Ropes Courses, Tree Climbing, Canoeing and Kayaking require trained facilitation due to safety requirements and equipment logistics.
Contact DaySpring Reservations for details about facilitation by the DaySpring staff or one of our partners. Reserve a time for your group by calling DaySpring Reservations at (941) 776-1018.
Pathfinder
Founded in 1993, Pathfinder Outdoor Education is a non-profit organization dedicated to building personal, social and environmental responsibility through the power of shared experience. We offer experiential educational programs that develop leadership, increase self-confidence, and enhance communication through trust and team building activities. Canoeing, high ropes, and outdoor living skills are just a few of the fun, outdoor activities participants can do, working together to gain new skills in problem-solving, resolving conflict, listening, observing, and working effectively in a group.
Common Ground Adventures
The mission of Common Ground Adventures is to provide meaningful experiences that build relationships, promote personal growth and lead to individual accomplishment. Our wide variety of team building workshops are crafted to develop group unity and range from half-day low impact courses to four-day intensive programs. We believe that life’s deepest, longest-lasting lessons can only be learned through personal and collective experience. All of our programs embrace this philosophy with their focus on experiential learning.

Common Ground has had a strong partnership with DaySpring since 2000, both in managing their ropes course and providing programming for clients who visit the conference center. DaySpring provides a wonderful challenge and ropes course which offers quality adventure-based programming. It is a model that has been duplicated with other facilities throughout the state, and is a special place for Common Ground.
Pathfinder has partnered with DaySpring for over a decade to provide adventures to groups of all ages. The sense of community created by the staff and the pride they take in their work has fostered this mutually beneficial relationship. We look forward to many more years of collaboration.
DaySpring fits all of our needs as an environmental education program. We love the location of peaceful wilderness, tucked away just minutes from I-75. We plan to continue to grow as an organization thanks to DaySpring.
