Join us for a 9-part series where students learn about the 7 priorities to desert/wilderness survival. This survival skills class will cover the seven priorities of survival: Positive Mental Attitude, Wilderness First Aid, Shelter options, Fire, Signaling (including lost behavior), Water, and Food.

Some of the hands-on instruction that we will be doing includes creating a shelter (various kinds), wilderness first aid (caring for snake bite, bee stings, knife cuts, burns, etc), signaling (whistle and mirror), knot tieing (make a paracord bracelet), basic compass instruction/orienteering, fire (practice w/ a ferrocerium rod) and more!

ECO Survival Skills/Bushcraft is for children in 3rd-7th grade (approximate ages 8-13 yrs old). Survival Skills/Bushcraft offers a combination of hands-on practical application and some lecture as we learn the 7 priorities of survival. Older siblings are welcome to attend this class too but we will be running one for just older children.

This class will be held on Mondays from 10:00 am – 11:30 am for 9 weeks. Class dates are 8/19, 8/26, 9/9, 9/16, 9/23, 9/30, 10/7, 10/14, and 10/21.

Make sure to reserve your spot before it’s too late!

More sessions are offered for 2025 also!!
