'''Campcraft''' is an activity at Birch Rock where campers learn how to use knifes, how to make fires, and other survival skills. It is generally a popular activity, most campers go to it at least a few times. There are four Campcraft badges instead of the usual three for most activities. There is the Junior Badge, Senior, Advanced, and Ranger. Along with badges, a camper can earn his knife, fire, and ax rights at Campcraft.
