Quarry Park Adventures provided passes for my family to attend, all opinions are my own.

If you are looking for an out-of-the-box birthday our outing idea, and are driving distance to Rocklin, CA I’ve got the answer for you my friends! Quarry Park Adventures is a rock climbing and ropes course adventure center built right into a previous granite quarry site. I honestly didn’t quite realize how big, awesome and seriously legit this place was until we got there.

This is something we can remind ourselves of throughout the year, a goal of sorts, to help us all be successful. My husband also gives each of my kids special father’s blessings for the upcoming school year.
