Tree Free Tarpology block mentored by RedOakBushcrafts

What we'll do

Come and pick up some ideas for simple tarp sessions that don't use trees. We will look at one knot that kids can pick up or maybe even know which can be used to create simple tarp shelters or dens. From that point on its the same knot just used a little differently so once they have the basics they can replicate it and start to adapt its use. The first part of the session will be looking at the knot and different cords to create two or three simple shelters. The second part will build to make more elaborate shelters using different styles of tarps. There will be handouts available along with examples of different ways of teaching the setups.

About your mentors

RedOakBushcrafts

Bushcraft and wilderness skills instructor

After leaving my job of 20 years in IT for the outdoors 18 years ago Ive not looked back. After taking part in a 3 day Bushcraft practitioners course early that reignited my love of the woodlands and all things Bushcraft. Currently a senior instructor for Dave Watson (Woodland Survival Crafts) as well as running RedOakBushcrafts. Whats not to like :-)

Cancellation Policy

Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.

My experience is an educational activity and the 14-day cooling-off period under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 therefore applies. After the 14 day period my standard policy will apply.
