Adventure Days offers archery and survival skills for youth, focusing on outdoor education and recreation through the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board.

▌ Editor's read The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board operates 'Adventure Days: Archery & Survival Skills' as part of its extensive summer camp offerings. The camp is listed on the parkboard.org website under their summer camp catalog. As a municipal entity, it is likely funded and overseen by the city, suggesting a degree of public accountability. The website provides general information about camp registration, financial aid, and health and safety, but specific details like staff-to-camper ratios or background check policies for this particular camp are not readily available on the main camp page. Social media handles for the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (minneapolisparks on Instagram and MinneapolisParks on Facebook) are active and promote various park activities, including camps.
