Try a variety of different outdoor cooking methods throughout the week, using a new one each day. Try some classic recipes or come up with new ones. You'll leave camp with a wealth of knowledge of recipes and cooking methods to use on future outdoor adventures. There will be plenty of time for your favorite camp activities, too, like trying the high challenge course, zip line and more! This group will spend the week staying in the hammock/pop up tent unit.
