Children need to know how to be safe in the
woods and parents need to be sure that every outing is appropriate
for the child's ability and interest level, while respecting the
abilities and limitations of each person. These educational
workshops began following the tragic death of a boy lost in the
woods in Lincoln, NH in the fall of 2003.
The main focus for
children is to teach them how to stay safe in a situation where they
are separated from the group or find themselves lost off the trail.
When that happens, there are several things that children can be
taught to keep them out of danger and improve their chances of
reuniting with their party. Bring your kids and learn the basics of
staying found in this free workshop! This program is designed for
4-12 yr olds but all are welcome. There is no cost and there are no
materials required. Bring a picnic lunch. A short hike or two will
be offered in the
afternoon.
