Dive into the four growth rings of Schoolhouse: Fire Building, Snake Identification, Whittling, and Plant Identification. Campers had a chance to hone their understanding of the natural world, build their skills and knowledge, and dedicate time to building their craft. In fire skills, campers practiced fire building skills from starting a fire all the way up to friction fires. Our whittling Growth Ring challenged campers to learn the basic safety rules to hand carving utensils like knives and spoons. Plant and snake rings gave campers a chance to expand their knowledge on the ecology of the Eno.
