Equip young adventurers with the confidence and skills they need to stay safe and capable in the outdoors!

Teens will learn essential wilderness survival techniques and age-appropriate first aid skills that empower them to think clearly, stay calm, and take care of themselves and others on the trail. Participants will practice key survival priorities—shelter building basics, water safety considerations, and how to stay warm and dry in changing conditions. They’ll also learn practical first aid topics such as wound care, bleeding control, recognizing hypothermia and heat illness, and when and how to call for help. With interactive scenarios, simple gear demonstrations, and teamwork-focused activities, teens walk away with real-world skills they can use during hiking, camping, or outdoor adventures.

This co-ed workshop encourages leadership, problem-solving, and good decision-making while showing that preparedness can be fun. Dress for a cool evening, as this class is held outdoors to provide hands-on experience. This class includes a basic first aid kit participants get to take home!
