SheJumps Youth Initiatives
[http://www.shejumps.org/program/youth-initiative/] are proud to
present a day of learning Wild Skills for Boise area girls ages 6-12.
Girls will be introduced to the skills they need for adventuring such
as first aid, leave no trace, 10 essentials and mountain biking.
They will learn, participate and create, plus all will receive a Wild
Skills journal for joining in the fun. This event is intended
for AGES 6-12 GIRLS (TRANSGENDER AND CISGENDER) AS WELL AS
NON-BINARY PEOPLE WHO IDENTIFY WITH THE WOMEN’S COMMUNITY.
SheJumps' Wild Skills youth events teach young girls the survival and
technical skills they need for outdoor adventuring. These skills can
be applied in any season or region and include first aid, navigation,
leave no trace, 10 essentials, shelter building and more. Our events
encourage girls to learn new skills, take on challenges and think
creatively which develops perseverance and fosters confidence.
Our goal is to see girls learning, having fun and connecting in an
encouraging environment with amazing instruction and support from
female mentors. We want Wild Skills to be an experience they
will remember, one that will spark a lifetime of passion for the
outdoors and will remind them that they are capable of anything.
