Hug-A-Tree

CCSOSAR, teaches several Hug A Tree events a year and is available upon request to schedule an outreach event. Reach out to us at hugatree@cochisesar.org.

Inspired by the search for nine year old Jimmy Beveridge in 1981 in southern California, and initiated by the caring heart of Ab Taylor, the Hug-a-Tree and Survive program teaches children how to survive in the woods should they become lost. The program was developed to educate children in a select few of the most basic and vital survival principles. It was specifically designed for children between the ages of 7 and 11 but can be effective with slightly younger and older children.
