Skynature Club

Skyline Outdoors and Environmental Sustainability Club

This club grew out of my love for nature and the awareness of how many kids my age have spent little to no time outside in the natural world.

Simple lessons about the outdoors are a step towards helping kids my age feel more comfortable in the world they live in. 

Shelters

Not A Bomb Shelter, But Necessary Nevertheless

Why would you want to build your own shelter? One reason of course is simply for the fun and challenge of building something with your own hands that you can sleep in. But another reason is more vital: what if you are out in the wilderness, and in need of rescue?  If you realize that you are lost, and have calmly decided you need a plan, what should come next?  It is time to construct a shelter for the night.  In a survival situation, not being able to regulate your core body temperature and keep it around 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit is one of the biggest dangers, so it is important to know what to do.
