STARK — Eight youngsters ranging in age from 11 to 14 recently got the chance to hone their outdoor skills during a wilderness survival day course during the week of July 20, thanks to two Appalachian Mountain Club instructors.
Sarah Geiwitz of Medway, Mass., and Emily Calder of Hopkinton, both temporarily living at the AMC’s complex on the White Mountain National Forest in Pinkham Notch, met the youngsters on Tuesday, July 21, their second of five outdoor days after they’d been dropped off at 8:30 a.m. at the gate of the South Pond Recreation Area off Route 110.
