"Camp Wild" registrations still open

The deadline to sign up your kids for Camp Wild day camps this June has been extended because there are still plenty of places left to fill. The Game & Fish youth summer camp will be held in Washington Park in Sundance from June 4 to 6 and is open to kids across the county.

"Kids from all over are welcome to participate," says Janet Milek, Public Information Specialist. "The deadline for registration will be one week before camp occurs, or when it is full, whichever happens first."

The three-day camp is for students entering fifth and sixth grade and will run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day. Activities will include hands-on learning about wildlife, habitats, aquatic ecology, basic survival, spincasting, archery and more.

The camp is intended to provide quality time in the outdoors and plenty of fun while learning about Wyoming's wildlife and outdoor recreation activities. Campers should bring a water bottle and lunch each day.

The camp is open to a total of 25 kids. To register, visit wgfd.wyo.gov/store/store/conservation-camps.
