Zombie Survival Camp

Learn how to protect yourself and your fellow villagers from zombies with essential stealth and survival skills, including building a shelter, making and using a paracord bracelet, smoke/fire making with bowdrills, foraging for wild edibles, purifying drinking water, packing a bug-out bag, developing emergency plans, using a map and compass, and wrapping a wound.  There will also be plenty of team building activities - as humans must be able to work together to survive the walking dead - including warp speed, keypunch, human knot, toxic river crossing, and on the final day, a Zombie Survival Obstacle Course! All campers will have the chance to play survivors and zombies in different scenarios, and create some killer zombie make-up and costumes.   For parents: Why a zombie camp? Because it will be fun!  And campers will learn some valuable skills that will come in handy in a variety of challenging situations, such as leadership, emergency preparedness, and using resources effectively.  For more information, call the park at 831-335-9348 Wedneday-Sunday, 9AM-4PM.
