Child Vs. Wild is the Delaware Nature Society's November 11 school-day-off camp for children in grades 3-6 at Ashland Nature Center in Hockessin, built around outdoor survival skills for the colder months. Campers learn to keep themselves warm by building shelters and fires, cook outdoors and try fishing, then use what they have learned in an orienteering adventure to find their way back out of the boondocks. The day runs from 8:30 am to 5 pm and costs $85; register through the society's ticketing page.
