 n\nPrimitive Fire Skills\n\nCost: $35 member/$40 non-member\n\nAges 12+ (a
 ll children must be accompanied by a paying adult)\n\nThis Primitive Fire 
 Workshop explores humanity’s ancient relationship with fire\, tracing it
 s role in survival\, culture\, and daily life for early humans. Students b
 egin with a brief discussion on the history of fire-making and how masteri
 ng fire fundamentally shaped human evolution\, movement\, and connection t
 o the natural world.\n\nParticipants then head into the forest to craft th
 eir own bow drill fire set using natural materials. Instruction focuses on
  wood selection\, tool preparation\, body mechanics\, and developing prope
 r technique. Students will practice the ancient skill of fire by friction\
 , learning patience\, rhythm\, and efficiency—key traits required for su
 ccessful primitive fire craft.\n\nThis hands-on workshop emphasizes self-r
