Description:

Fire, Shelter, and Shaggy Dog Stories is a classic GOS day in the woods. 

Get together with buds, and make some new ones under the big bold sky, rain or shine.  

Join GOS instructors to do what it takes to thrive all day, fully outdoors. Take shelter in the rain, or get out on the trail in the sun - either way, we’ll have some long rambly stories by day’s end.

This is at a fresh location, Barber Scout Camp, across the river from where we normally roam.  All our favourites are in place:
Opening Circle - where everyone has a chance to speak and be heard
Thrilling Warm-Up Games - to get out of our academic heads and into our bodies
Work of the Day: Making Shelter, Tending Fire, Tracking, Carving and Art, Getting out on Adventures
Story of the Day - gathering up to celebrate and share stories together.  
So simple, so good. 

See you out there.

Notes: GOS PD programs let you breathe easy knowing your kid is outside with caring adults who are trained to support the growth and relationship development of children and nature.  Wait 'til you see their end of day smiles and hear the stories. PD Days are rain or shine.  Sun, snow, gusts, and fogs, we will be out there. Please dress appropriately. If you need to cancel, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can offer your spot to another set of bright eyes.  Cancellation Policy for PD Camps:  We ask that the first $10 of any registration be considered a deposit. A full refund (minus deposit) can be issued if you cancel with 14 days notice or more, prior to the program start date. Cancellations within 14 days of the start date of a PD Camp are non-refundable.  All effort will be taken to find a replacement participant from a waitlist, should one exist, and should that be completed, then a refund less deposit will be issued. GOS is not responsible for issuing refunds when programs are cancelled due to inclement weather, or circumstances out of our control which may include provincially mandated closure of programs. If a program is cancelled due to low enrolment, tuition will be fully refundable or transferable.
