California, USA) as "conference centers." These are usually private, larger
(say, >50 hectares) tracts of land upon which a variety of physically
challenging activities take place, usually with the gathering of people for
organized "recreation" ... sports...  rope climbing, ziplining, and other
"team building" activities"... I have neither found nor have I been able to
coin a better tag to use on these"
