Program Description:

Transform survival into “sur-THRIV-al” with our Improvised Tool-Building Workshop! Discover the art of crafting simple yet effective tools that can ease your tasks and boost your morale in the wild. You'll get hands-on experience in making a variety of tools, and you'll craft one special tool to take home with you.

Equip yourself with your survival knife (loaners available) and work gloves, and get ready to turn natural resources into invaluable assets.
