Description

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. No prerequisites.

Bring appropriate clothing, snacks, water shoes, bug spray, and lunch
