This week-long camp is taking place at Camp Blanding for its training facilities, and it is geared toward youth ages 14-20.
So far this week, explorers from Flagler, Duval, Bradford and St. Johns counties were allowed to rappel from a 60-foot tower, run the obstacle course as a unit and assist their peers in completing the course.
Explorers also participated in a field leadership reaction course, where they worked through several obstacles as a team.
Positions are still open for the remainder of the week, but space is limited. If you are interested, email PCSO Deputy Sheriff Cory Felbinger at cfelbinger@putnamsheriff.org.
