The Cottonwood Institute is excited to collaborate with the Operation: Military Kids to offer our
Essential Survival Skills Overnight course to teenagers who have parents currently serving in the
military. Thanks to some generous Cottonwood Institute donors, this course is available to military
families free of charge, but space is limited so apply today!
During this course, we will camp out under the stars near Grand Junction. Students will learn about
survival priorities, tips, strategies, and techniques, practice making survival shelters, primitive and
modern fires, participate in an interactive survival challenge, learn how to make a survival kit, and
complete an environmental service project to help give back to the land. This course will be action
packed, so get ready to learn how to survive!
Limited to 12 students
