2. First aid – learn how to give first aid in different unpredicted situations while hiking
3. The weather – find out how to interpret the forecast and to predict the weather
4. Archery – learn to hunt; exercise with a bow and arrows, targeting a specific point
Scoutball: It is a scouts’ specific game – a combination between American football and soccer. We’ll have 2 teams, a ball and a field. Each player is going to have a scarf attached to their back which could be taken by an opponent. If he/she has the ball, then he/she will be out of the game for a minute; otherwise, the one taking the scarf off will be out of the game for a minute. A goal is scored by getting the ball passed the opponents’ goal’s line.
The participants learned useful techniques to survive in nature, as well as to appreciate the environment, to work in a team, to enjoy small things around us.
