Bushcraft Camp
Our fun-packed camp will offer a journey into the ancient skills and arts of the land. This theme will bring us into our senses, teach us to read the landscape like a story book, and offer the opportunity to craft tools from nature. By the end of camp, each camper will come home with a nature made tool and a deep sense of accomplishment.
