TENTMAKERS’ Wilderness Challenge is designed to help boys aged 12-14 accomplish objectives both as individuals and as a team. In a small setting with 12 boys and 6 well-trained, experienced leaders, participants will have the opportunity to be pushed beyond their comfort zone in a wilderness setting.
They will grow in wilderness skills like knife and axe handling, hiking, wilderness first aid, cooking, camping, fire building, orienteering, bow marksmanship, rope bridge challenges, canoeing, fishing, and night navigation. More importantly, they will be challenged to develop characteristics of honor, leadership, integrity, discipline, dedication and courage. Throughout the week we will study King David from the Bible and learn from his life as we seek to be of the caliber of “David’s Mighty Men!”
