Event details

Let’s cook! As the weather cools down, there's nothing quite as satisfying as a warm, camp-cooked meal on a chilly autumn day. Join us for a relaxed campfire cooking workshop where you will learn the basics of tending to a campfire and cooking with foil packets. Ingredients to customize your own baked potato foil packet meal will be provided.
