Safe Participant Survival Course
18 October @ 6:00 pm - 20 October @ 3:00 pm
Eligibility – Venturer Scouts, Rover Scouts, Leaders
Max numbers – 12 participants
Your adventures into the outdoors went wrong. Be prepared. You might be lost or injured on a 6 hour bushwalk, and you need to spend the night. Perhaps you fell in a river and lost the contents of your pack and you are several kilometers down river with no map, no tents and no matches. You need a fire and shelter. Do you know what to do?
Learn what to carry in personal survival kits, how to build a variety of shelters, how to light a fire with no matches, and how to deal with staying alive with limited resources until help arrives.
