A special visitor came to wish the campers farewell! Thanks for a great week full of laughter and fun

Students use their gained natural resource knowledge to give presentations on the final night to the "Board of Review" on ways to best manage land... it's impressive to see how much growth there is during one week. We're so proud of our campers and their successful night!

Different tools to learn #hydrology.... utilizing both a flume and a flow meter, students get hands on to measure cubic feet per second

Service project was successful! Lots of fun creating bridges over waterways on the local trails... loved seeing the hard work!

Students utilize GPS to find plotted flags around the local forest... learning another trade of a natural resource manager's toolbox

Students learn about vegetation and range management... different types of plants, identification and vegetation plots. Getting to the "root" of land management

Coloring with Nature... the talent and creativity never ceases to amaze. Students are given only a piece of paper and must create art with whatever they can find in nature
