THIS IS NO CIRCUS STUNT. It's a brave jaunt across a rope -- with a guide line and safety harness for protection -- for a participant in The Adventure Center's outing for women of Liverpool Community Church last week. The Adventure Center teaches leadership and team building, with a strong emphasis on cooperative behavior. Tom Gardner leads the program, which is open to adults and teens in Central New York.
