Fire Class

Date: February 22, 2023

Troop 60 put on a Fire Class for local Webelos Scouts.  Scouts learned how to use a ferrorod and make ember fires with flint and steel and friction.  We worked on burning cotton balls, wood shavings, birch bark, cottonwood bark, grass and moss. 

Weather was pouring rain with a 100% chance of fun!

It takes teamwork to make a fire from a bowdrill
