Join Kaykima Wilderness for a family-friendly day of learning Basic Survival Skills and Fire Craft, as well as learning tidbits of information from our Reading Nature class. This four-hour program will introduce students to the basic elements of outdoor survival - what to do (and not do) in an emergency survival situation. Students will then head out into the forest to build their own emergency survival shelter, either alone or in groups. Afterwards, students will learn the basic elements of fire craft, as well as practice lighting tinder using basic survival tools before the class ends. 

This program is geared towards homeschool students ages 5 - 17. While parents are not obligated to participate in these workshop, a parental representative must be present for students. Parents and younger siblings are also welcome stay for class, free of charge. We simply ask that students be given the space to fully engage and participate in the program. 

Costs for this four-hour program are $65 per participant. 

We run our programs rain or shine and encourage parents/students to check the weather on the day of class and dress accordingly. We suggest wearing layers, as well as long pants and closed toed shoes.
