You'd be surprised what the Webelos want to do.  My troop used Wilderness Survival as a recruiting tool. The first time we did it was a complete fluke; most of our gear was destroyed and we had to come up with something the night before the campout. Wilderness Survival it was, and so successful was the campout, it became an annual event. 

 

Also my son saw a video his den chief made of survival shelters and snow. HE ATE IT UP!  He started building shelters in the yard, and his first campout as a Webelos, he did a shelter.
