Wilderness Survival
So popular that we added a second session! Campers will get to practice basic skills for survival away from civilization. They will work on building fires, creating shelters, knots, compass work, and even how to use a GPS unit! Camp Silver Creek offers a wonderful area to practice these skills in a safe and fun manner. Wilderness beware!
