Challenge course planned for New Hanover County park

NEW HANOVER COUNTY, NC (WWAY) — A fun way to enjoy the outdoors could be coming to the Northern Regional Park in Castle Hayne.

Work is underway to raise money for a new challenge course.

New Hanover County Parks and Gardens wants to add a Challenge Course to Northern Regional Park.  The proposed obstacle course is a nod to the “American Ninja Warrior” in all of us.  With obstacles like floating boards, agility trainers, traverse wall and ninja steps, the Challenge Course is designed to create a fun and social fitness experience for people of all generations and fitness levels.

It’s expected to cost $175,000.

The Parks Conservancy is looking for grants and donations to help move the project forward.  If you are interested in learning more about the Challenge Course and how you can help bring it to life, contact Janine Powell at (910) 798-7703 or jpowell@nhcgov.com.
