Maine Conservation Camp is a great opportunity for boys and girls ages 8-18 and their parents to learn about a variety of recreational pursuits in the woods and waters of the state.
At the Maine Wildlife Park in Gray on Saturday, June 4, from 11 a.m.-2 p.m., a representative from Maine Conservation School will be on hand to showcase some of the many programs offered at their Bethel campus, located on beautiful Lake Christopher.
Camp activities include range safety classes in firearms and archery, canoeing, ropes courses, wildlife and fishery ID, map and compass, forestry, fly and spin casting, hunter safety certification and much more. Maine Department of Fish and Wildlife Scholarship funding is available for 10, 11, and 12-year-old Maine residents in many of the week-long sessions. This is a great opportunity for your child to become ‘woods wise’ and safety conscious, and to develop an awareness and appreciation for our natural resources.
