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.

Friday 3:45 pm – 5:15 pm for 9 days (this class has an odd schedule due to other teaching commitments and holidays) Class dates 8/30, 9/27, 10/11, 11/15, 11/22, 12/6, 12/13, 1/3, 1/10
