    Outdoor survival skills can be very important when heading out
    on an adventure, and in case of an emergency. In extreme
    situations, understanding basic skills can be the difference
    between life and death.



     



    Cleveland Metroparks invites everyone to learn basic outdoor
    survival techniques and enjoy outdoor adventures with more
    confidence by attending the free, three-part  "Basic
    Wilderness Survival" program on Saturdays, October 2, 9 and 16
    at BrecksvilleNatureCenter.



     



    Each of the three parts take place from noon to 4 p.m.



     



    Volunteer Naturalists Don Howell and Ron Lemieux lead
    participants in this three-part course in fire-making,
    shelter-building, finding and cooking food, and locating drinkable
    water.



     



    Registration, beginning September 20, is required. Space is
    limited.



     



    Participants under age 16 must be accompanied by an adult and
    have permission from BrecksvilleNatureCenter staff to participate
    in the program.



     



    BrecksvilleNatureCenter is located off Chippewa Creek Drive, off
    the Route 82 entrance of Brecksville Reservation in
    Brecksville.



     



    For more information and to register, call 440-526-1012.



     



    Learn the basics of wilderness survival with Cleveland
    Metroparks - part of your life, naturally.
