EcoRanger Wildlife Camp
About this Event
Over five adventure‑filled field trip days, campers dive into the wild world of native wildlife, meeting the creatures that share our forests, fields, and waterways while discovering the community organizations working every day to protect them. Through hands‑on activities, expert visits, and behind‑the‑scenes experiences, youth learn how conservation happens, why it matters, and how they can play a role in safeguarding the natural treasures that make our home unique. Participants will br provided a snack and eco souvenir.
