"What is zombie apocalypse preparedness?" you ask. Why, it's disaster preparedness, capped off with a trip to the rifle range and booze, of course! --- Here's what I thought might each be a fun Sunday afternoon/evening:
Ideas
Course Work
- First Aid and CPR certification
- Amateur radio ARES/RACES usage taught by local operators
- Brewing and distillation of alcohol (we probably oughtn't run a still in the space, however...)
- Water distillation and purification
- Penny stove building workshop: http://www.csun.edu/~mjurey/penny.html
- Electricity generation
- Tinkering: fabricating unavailable yet critical tools or devices out of items you might find in a common house or office
- Chainsaw maintenance
- Salvage and safe use of common demolition/mining explosives
- Defensive driving
- Archery/fencing/sword/other-running-out-of-ammo-disaster-skills
- Reloading, nothing like making your own ammo
- Methane gas production
- Hand printing, copying, and cipher methods
- Semaphore signaling
- Scripture cheatsheet for whipping up/controlling dirty masses of post apoc. fundies
- Bee keeping
- Animal husbandry (keeping chickens, goats, rabbits and other edible pets)
- Urban gardening
- Food preservation
- Tunnel digging techniques
- Trap door construction (for escape hatches and booby traps)
Field Trips
- A trip to a rifle range (ie: not just small-bore handguns)
