Their grand opening was today at noon at the Palisades Center

A new aerial adventure opened Friday at Palisades Center.

The Palisades Climb Adventure will add to the eclectic entertainment mix at Palisades Center and will offer a fun and unique experience for visitors, promoters said.

"Today is the official grand opening. We opened at noon today," said Kevin Clark, the attraction's General Manager. "Up until New Year's, we’ll be open 10 a.m. - 10 p.m. until new years. We'll be here year-round."

Their hours of operation will change in 2013. 

The five-level, custom designed ropes adventure course stands 85 feet tall, making it the tallest indoor course. It is located within the center court atrium, with access on level 4 between Dave and Busters and Forever 21. A climb costs just under $15.

There is no age restriction, but there is a height requirement of 48 inches. Children need to be accompanied by an adult. 

It contains 75 different challenge elements, including a tremor bridge, tension traverse, a vertical rope ladder, a quarter cargo net, a two line rope bridge, an alternating spaghetti handline and a three line lumber rope bridge. Each element includes a different ropes configuration such as bridges, tight ropes, loops and balance beams, obstacles present challenges of strength, balance and agility.

I guess better late than never. LaCorte is serving his 4th year as Mayor and was Trustee for I thinkRead More 4 years before that. This year is the only time he has brought the idea to the village about participating in this program. He is motivated by the opportunity of getting positive press for his County Executive campaign. The village should have been involved in this program ( as well as the Americorps program) long before this. On a positive note, hopefully the Village will continue this worthwhile partnership for many years to come.
