Wilderness Adventure Camp “Learning skills for outdoor survival.”
Do you think you could survive in the wild? Come test you survival skills and learn some new ones. Lake Dardanelle State Park will be holding a one day camp on Saturday, February 5th for kids ages 10-14. The camp includes backpacking tips, knot tying instructions, fishing techniques, and much more. The campers will meet at the visitor center at 9am and will be ready to be picked up there at 4pm.
