About This Activity
Description
Aspiring young hunters, this camp is for you! In this 5 day non-competitive day camp, we teach all the requirements of the Illinois hunter safety course, including hunter responsibility and ethics, firearms and ammunition, firearm safety in the home, state regulations, and more. We also offer you the chance to go out into the park off-trail to practice blood trailing and tracking, setting up a tree stand, first aid scenarios, and transporting your deer. As a summer camp opportunity, we also offer games and activities regarding wildlife management and conservation as well as an archery class! At the end of the week you will be offered the test for Illinois hunter safety certification for free. This camp includes instruction from certified hunter safety instructors as well as camp counselors.
Registration is required.
We have partnered with ePACT to replace our paper emergency information forms. If you enroll your child in summer camp you will be required to submit your child’s emergency information through the ePACT website.
