Camp Skills

At Valley Day Camp "Camp Skills" are an important part of our program. Each camp skill is leveled to be age appropriate. For example, in Knife Skills the younger units cut fruit with butter knives and eat it for snack. The older units learn to whittle sticks and make their own tinder. Some of our other camp skills are Knots, First Aid, Fires, and Orienteering (using compasses, GPS, trail signs etc). The girls above were so proud of their superb knife skills.
