Things
like a ferrous rod, char-cloth, or even a magnifying glass can help
start a fire when matches are scarce.
Fire Starting
Basics at DCP
Join Darke County Parks to re-learn the crucial and very basic skill of
fire starting without matches. On Thursday October 20th at 6pm the
parks welcome Rob Simpson of the local Canteen Shop back to Shawnee
Prairie Preserve for this hands-on workshop. During the program, he
will introduce a variety of techniques for starting fire and how to use
them. Fire plays an important role in outdoor life. Whether it’s a
planned overnight or an emergency; don’t be left out in the cold! This
program will take place rain or shine. Registration is required for
this free event. Call the nature center at (937) 548-0165 to reserve
your spot today.
