Nathan Roberts spends most of his working days alternating between walking the ropes two stories high, greeting customers at the ticket counter, and safely harnessing guests while giving them the low down of the course rules. Nate has been a part of Allegan Event since it's opening day! You may have seen his name mentioned many times in our guest reviews sharing what a great experience they had at Allegan Event with Nate.

All the crazy things kids do, they never seem to run out of ideas or to not make me laugh.
What aspects of your job do you feel you’re the best at?
I feel I am best at safety... but that's something all staff members at Allegan Event do extremely well. So, I will say that I am in fact the fastest at harnessing guests!
