In this class, we will be going over a basic introduction to woodworking. We will cover tool and shop safety, the basics of wood as a material, hand tools, power tools, and more! Be prepared to make sawdust your favorite accessory and walk away from the class with a couple of small projects of your own and ideas for more!

There are strict rules students must follow for the wood shop:

  • Safety glasses are provided, or you may bring your own.
  • Wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes
  • Avoid loose-fitting clothing and accessories

    WATER We recommend bringing a refillable water bottle from home. Creating art makes you thirsty.

    SNACK Students are welcome to bring a snack to be eaten during our daily break times. Health + Food Allergy Notice: For the safety of others, students cannot share food. We ask for parents and guardians to be mindful of other children who may have potentially life-threatening allergies. To reduce this risk, please do not bring foods with peanuts and tree nuts.

    LUNCH If your child is attending both AM and PM camps, they will be supervised during a lunch and break period. Students must bring their lunch from home. This option is available only to students attending AM and PM camps in a week.

    ART SUPPLIES Sawtooth will provide all materials and supplies needed for camp. They may be asked to bring certain recycled materials from home, but this is not a requirement.
