Program Description

Event Details

Join us at the Mr. & Mrs. F.L. Schlagle Library for an introductory basic wilderness survival program. Participants will learn how to make a fire, filter water, and create cordage from natural fibers. 
 
Registration is required. This program is intended for ages 7+. All children under the age of 9 must be accompanied by an adult. Adults must also register for the program.
 
Participants may only sign up for one Nature Quest program per day. The morning and afternoon programs will be the same on the same day; this is to provide multiple opportunities for as many people as possible to participate.
