How Would You Handle a Survival Situation?
Have you ever wanted to learn how to properly build a fire, track, or shoot a bow? If so, registration is now open for Dutchess County Parks Department s popular Adventure and Survival summer programs.
The programs are for children age 9-17, and the sessions take place at Bowdoin Park in the Town of Poughkeepsie and Wilcox Memorial Park in the Town of Milan. These sessions are very popular, and due to that sessions will be limited to 12 participants and one session per student.
The sessions feature hands-on activities like hiking, shelter making, fire building, and many other survival skills. The sessions are held Monday through Thursday from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. with early drop-off and late pick-up options available.
