Pammel State Park, Madison County
Wednesday, June 28, 2023
Do you think you have what it takes to SURVIVE IN THE WILD? Naturalist Amy will guide families through various survival scenarios, highlighting what to do and what NOT to do in a survival situation. Families will learn about gear, paracord bracelets, fire building, fire safety, basic first aid, and shelter building.
Special help from campfire cooking enthusiast and MCCB volunteer, Ky Schmitt. Snacks will be made using Dutch Ovens and pie irons over a campfire.
Family camps are designed to teach basic wilderness skills for children and adults. These lessons are geared toward kids 7+ and accompanying adults (parents, grandparents, aunts/uncles). Younger children are welcome if accompanied by an adult who is ready to assist them.
