Description

Schoolhouse has a long tradition of passing down wilderness survival skills to our campers. Throughout this week we will practice fire-building, shelter construction, and the identification of useful survival plants! We'll walk campers through the steps of creating fire, from finding natural fire starters to starting a flame with just a single spark. We'll try our hand at making debris huts and boil up some tasty tea made with native, edible plants. Whether your child is just getting interested in survival skills or is an accomplished fire-builder, this week will be a blast!

*In addition to the theme-related activities listed above, every week of camp will include some classic Schoolhouse activities such as: morning and closing circle, deep woods games, whittling, storytelling, and of course, looking for any critters we can find.
