I am going to see if I qualify for the kids age range because I would like to participate in this activity too. Venture Outdoors has an activity this weekend to help you stay warm outdoors – Campfire building.

Think you can start a campfire with just one match? Prove it! We’re going to break this course down into three sections: collecting your materials, placing your campfire and building it. We’ll cover fire safety and Leave No Trace throughout the class. So leave your fuel canisters at home, and join our experienced leaders for a fun class on the essence of campfire building. (Geared towards ages 8-18.)

Location: Riverview Park
Difficulty: Easy
Time: 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM
Cost: $5.00 non-member / $5.00 member / $5.00 kids / $20.00 family
