WonderWorks Expanding at Destiny USA

May 31st, 2013

The Incredible Sky Tykes Kids Ropes Course now under

construction on Destiny USA’s Second Level

Sky Tykes adds a ropes course for younger children

Syracuse, NY- Children who were too young or small to go on the Canyon Climb Adventure ropes course at Destiny USA’s WonderWorks now have a ropes course of their own! Sky Tykes is a ropes course for kids from ages 2-7 under 48 inches tall. The open and low-level design allows for easy parental guidance at any level of the course. Walk along side your child or simply step back and watch them take part in the fun as they are securely harnessed in.

“WonderWorks has something to offer every member of the family with interactive exhibits, children’s area and the Canyon Climb Adventure,” Todd Buchko, General Manager of WonderWorks said. “We’ve collected a lot of feedback since our opening in November from people visiting us from across the country and fun for smaller children was a huge request. We’re thrilled to introduce this new component and let our guests from Canada and the US know that we have something new for them to try out.”

The Sky Tykes ropes course will feature eight elements for children to choose from and will stand three feet in the air.

“It’s exciting to add more to do for young children,” Rob Schoeneck, General Manager at Destiny USA, stated. “Now the younger siblings no longer have to watch their older brothers and sisters on a ropes course. They can join in on the fun.”

Sky Tykes is directly beneath the Canyon Climb Adventure ropes course on the second level. It is currently under construction and is projected to open this weekend at Destiny USA.
