The O’Brien County Conservation Board is offering a multitude of opportunities for youth to get outdoors and EXPLORE this summer.

A survival camp for beginners will be held on Thursday, August 1st at the Prairie Heritage Center.  Youths ages 8-14 will meet at the Prairie Heritage Center at 9:00 a.m.  Some basic survival skills – such as compasses, plant identification, track identification, fire starting and more – will be covered.  After learning some basics, participants will engage in a friendly competition to see if they could survive in these “Minute-to-Win-It” style challenges.  The program will conclude at noon.

Pre-registration is requested for this event.  Contact the O’Brien County Conservation Board at 712-295-7200.
