About This Activity
Description
Build. Cool. Stuff. This camp is all about tool use, creativity and engineering. Each day we will introduce a new building project that participants will work on throughout the week to bring home. Projects are generally themed for camping and outdoors. We even try to build the tools we will use to build the other things! Projects may include assembling a bushcraft knife, a bone awl, wood baton, natural fiber cordage,hand carved wood spoon and/or bowl, paracord survival bracelets or belts, feathersticks, leather medicine pouches, bamboo walking sticks, gourd drinking bottle, rocket stove and more. Projects vary depending on instructor. We take breaks to explore the park and look for materials. Participants practice focus, follow through, patience and develop problem solving and common sense as they work through projects.
