Cadet Ranger – Outdoor Essentials

Get ready to learn about survival skills at this FREE Cadet Ranger (ages 13 to 17) OUTDOOR ESSENTIALS event at David Fleay Wildlife Park! Do you have the bushcraft skills it takes to handle an unexpected event in the bush? Learning from Scott Poad from ReWild You, Cadet Rangers will get up to speed with the practical outdoor skills every explorer, bushwalker or future Ranger needs. You’ll gain hands-on experience in: • building an emergency survival kit • safely sourcing food and water • creating an emergency shelter • tying secure knots, and • applying a snakebite bandage yourself. Far more than just a demo, you’ll be actively working as a team to complete these challenges and gain vital skills. Wear a hat and enclosed shoes for this fully supervised session that is part of the Parks Connect Cadet Ranger program. Parks Connect is proudly supported through funding from the Queensland Department of the Environment, Tourism, Science and Innovation.
