Beaver Fall Camp

Beavers spent last weekend at Camp Evansburg for our annual Fall Camp. 

We went on a nature hike and learned about the different plants and trees and how to identify them.  Beavers also learnt about water safety and what to do when you are near a river.

We started teaching beavers about fire.  First the beavers learnt the three parts that make a fire and fire safety by making a fire snack (marshmallows for rocks, pretzel sticks for wood, nibs for fire).  Later we went out to gather materials to make a real fire.

Beavers went on a hunt for animal tracks and plaster cast any that we found.  We also went on a garbage pick up to help keep the trails, forest and camps clean.

Best of all was playing games with all sections at camp, food fear factor and campfire.
