Wildcraft & Woodland Skills is a week-long, full-day outdoor camp that builds confidence, responsibility, and practical skills through hands-on learning in the forest. Designed for youth ages 8–12, this program introduces campers to traditional outdoor skills rooted in safety, respect, and environmental stewardship.
Throughout the week, campers learn how to build and improve shelters, tie essential knots, safely use age-appropriate tools, and navigate using maps and compasses. Activities are scaffolded to support skill mastery, problem-solving, and teamwork, with an emphasis on patience, focus, and clear communication.
Guided by Leave No Trace principles, Wildcraft & Woodland Skills helps campers understand how thoughtful design and responsible decision-making keep both people and natural spaces safe. The week culminates in a Wildcraft Showcase, where campers teach skills to peers, demonstrate shelters and knots, and reflect on their growth as capable, confident outdoor learners.
