🌲 Into the Wilderness STEAM Camp – Day 1! 🌲
Today our campers learned essential wilderness survival skills, including the Priorities of Life, the Rule of Threes, and how to tie important survival knots, thanks to the help of the Cherry Point Fire and Emergency Services. They also put their engineering skills to the test by designing and building shelters, thanks to the help of Eric Fries! It was a day full of teamwork, problem-solving, creativity, and outdoor adventure. We can't wait to see what our young explorers learn next! 🏕️🪢🍃
