Adventure Sports Center Scheduled To Open Saturday

May. 10, 2012

The Adventure Sports Center International (ASCI) will open for the 2012 season on Saturday, May 12, with whitewater rafting offered to the "community of Garrett County" for $25 per person, the Garrett County commissioners announced on Monday. Private boaters who are residents of Garrett County can use the course for $10 on Saturday.

ASCI is beginning its sixth season and has averaged more than 1l,000 rafters per year, according to county officials.

The center will host the All American Whitewater Festival Memorial Day weekend, honoring veterans and benefiting Team River Runners, a Wounded Warrior program that teaches injured veterans how to "heal through whitewater boating."

"ASCI has built successful recreation and educational programs based at its state-of-the-art whitewater park and throughout the 550 acre Fork Run Recreational Area, a protected woodland habitat with miles of trails and some of Maryland's most accessible bouldering and sport climbing," the commissioners noted in a press release. "The Adventuresports Institute of Garrett College provides quality instruction and guidance for the various programs at ASCI, making it an ideal place to learn or improve skills in kayaking, climbing and rappelling, mountain biking, and orienteering with GPS units through geocaching."

ASCI is a not-for-profit, 501(c)(3), charitable organization formed to promote adventure tourism and healthy outdoor lifestyles. ASCI operates the world's only mountaintop river park and has taken over 55,000 people rafting since it opened in 2007. Programs are designed for groups and individuals of all skill levels and backgrounds.

For more information about ASCI programs and reservations, persons may call 301-387-3250, e-mail asci@adventuresportscenter.com or visit adventuresportscenter.com.
