My wife is a camp certified leader for a GS troop. One of the biggest hits they've had is the time she taught the girls how to cut wood for and light campfires (safety instruction included & constantly reinforced). Most of them had never struck a match before, or used a saw. They all seem to get excited about outdoor activities/camping when they are given the opportunity.

I like the things you did Pete, I'll share this with my wife as an idea for another great experience.
