SDSU Natural Resource Camp Slated for July
South Dakota Ag Connection - 03/24/2017
The South Dakota State University Department of Natural Resource Management will host the 2017 Natural Resource Camp at the Oak Lake Field Station in Astoria July 10-14. Students have the opportunity to gain exposure to the world of natural resources
through hands-on experiences in natural resource ecology and management.
High school students entering grades 9-12 who have a strong desire to learn more about the natural world or who have an interest in pursuing a career related to natural resources are encouraged to attend.
A wide range of unique activities will be offered at the camp. Camp attendees will have opportunities to assist with capture and sampling of birds, fish, aquatic invertebrates and mammals. Students also have the opportunity to learn about search and rescue
tracking, stream ecology, plant diversity and much more.
"Natural Resource Camp is an opportunity for high school students to explore the natural resource field," says Leslie Vincent, SDSU Natural Resource Management Instructor and Camp Coordinator. "The camp was created not only for educational outreach,
but also for students who are considering future careers in ecology, environmental science, rangeland ecology, natural resource law enforcement, wildlife and fisheries. Camp is an excellent way to 'get your feet wet' and learn more about natural resource
careers."
Please register by May 26th. Contact Leslie Vincent by email or 605.688.5602. To learn more about the camp visit the SDSU Resource Camp page.
