Twenty-seven students in grades eight and nine at Arcola School took part in a camping trip through their Practical Applied Arts class while learning about wildlife and Leave No Trace Camping. “I think the trip was a success,” A.J. Schlenker, a teacher at Arcola School explained. “We hiked in to Saskairie with backpacks full of equipment, food, and clothing (with only one wrong turn)! And once at Saskairie, students were involved in cooking their own meals, setting up tents and shelters, participating in initiative tasks and games, and trying out a few things like atlatl and dart throwing, and an 'outdoor Olympics.' Overall it was a chilly, but successful camping trip.”
