Summer Camp Week #2 - Survival 101

Monday through Friday we will explore, create, and connect while we are in the beautiful outdoors! At summer camp at Primitive Instincts YNP, we will have so much fun with games, art, free exploration, and learning about the fascinating world of nature. This includes natural sciences, as well as awareness, primitive, and survival skills. Every Friday is dedicated to practice archery and explore art. There is also an awesome saltwater pool for us to cool off in every sunny afternoon!

Survival 101 week will give us the opportunity to discuss and experience all the ways we can stay outdoors and thrive in nature! Encouragement of empowerment and curiosity will guide us during this week, as we focus on primtive tools, basic shelter building, basic knots, different ways to start a fire, cordage, wild edibles, how to choose a campsite, how to stalk and camouflage, and more! Be prepared to connect to our ancestors and the land around us, as we discover all the resources that nature can provide.
