The Junior First Responder Camp is an immersive, hands-on experience designed to teach kids essential first aid and survival skills in a fun and engaging way. Throughout the week, campers will engage in interactive activities, including choose your own adventure games to assess risk, and
realistic first aid scenarios where they’ll practice responding to common injuries and life-threatening emergencies. They will also tackle group survival challenges such as shelter building, fire making, and map navigation, working together to apply their skills in a team setting. Campers will have the unique opportunity to interview local first responders, gaining insight into emergency preparedness. They will assemble personalized first aid kits and generate emergency response plans, learning how to anticipate and be prepared in the case of an emergency. The camp culminates with a skit presentation, where kids will demonstrate their newly acquired skills and knowledge to parents, leaving with the confidence and know-how to prevent, assess, and respond to emergencies both at home and in the wilderness.
