3rd Grade Field Trip Name: Wilderness Skills Outdoor Program Location: Lake Geneva Ziplines and Adventures Date: May 20, 2022 Time: 9am-1:45pm Description: During the Wilderness Skills Outdoor Program, students will learn practical and fun wilderness skills. They will be going on a compass hike where they will put their navigational skills to the test to find hidden items. Students will try their hands at making traditional shelters using natural materials, they will learn about survival skills, and then they will finish with a game to test their new knowledge. Although we are going to LG Ziplines and Adventures, we will NOT be ziplining.
