Summer Camps

Wilderness Survival Camp

 

No prerequisites needed. Full day of building survival skills and testing yourself against survival scenarios! Skills taught/practiced will include shelters, fire safety/building, knife safety, tracking, foraging teamwork, traps, orienteering, cordage and knots and primitive skills. We won’t get to all of them but will get in a lot based on instructor and student preference. Our goal is building initiative, self control and judgement skills while connecting with the natural world and having fun. We use teaching scenarios based on real life survival and play survival themed games. The week ends with an exciting final scenario and a certificate of achievement. Bring appropriate clothing, snacks and lunch.

Projects may include assembling a bushcraft knife, a bone awl, wood baton, natural fiber cordage,hand carved wood spoon and/or bowl, paracord survival bracelets or belts, feathersticks, leather medicine pouches, bamboo walking sticks, gourd drinking bottle, rocket stove and more. Projects vary depending on instructor. We take breaks to explore the park and look for materials.

Participants practice focus, follow through, patience and develop problem solving and common sense as they work through projects.
