The Adventure Park at Sandy Spring
The Adventure Park offers family fun for ages 5 and up. This aerial forest adventure is fun, exciting and safe for all participants. We provide a harness and equipment and give you a safety briefing that demonstrates how to climb and zip line in the park. There are 13 separate courses of varying levels of difficulty. Each course has zip lines but primarily consist of “bridges” between tree platforms made of rope, cable and wood configurations creating over 150 unique challenges. You will develop skills, endurance, and confidence during your time in the Park. Trained Adventure Park staff members monitor the Park and are there to assist if needed.

Field Trip to the US Naval Academy: January 27, 2012
LTI Juniors and Sophomores travelled to Annapolis, Maryland, to see leadership in action at the US Naval Academy. Students toured the Academy, viewing Lejeune Hall, Bancroft Hall, Tecumseh Court, and Herndon Monument. After the tour, students enjoyed an informal lunch at the Dry Dock Restaurant in Dahlgren Hall.
"Leaders must be tough enough to fight, tender enough to cry, human enough to make mistakes, humble enough to admit them, strong enough to absorb the pain, and resilient enough to bounce back and keep on moving."
--Jesse Jackson
The Leadership Training Institute
Discover the leader in you!
The Leadership Training Institute is an interdisciplinary program that combines a rigorous course of study along with leadership theory. During the junior year in LTI, students take Advanced Placement Language and Composition (English) and Advanced Placement Psychology classes with a special emphasis in leadership. Actitivities in the junior year, such as interdisciplinary projects and field trips, build on leadership concepts learned in the Foundations of Leadership course taken in the sophomore year.
