It is a one week camp for kids aged 12-14 years old. They learn about: Ecology, 1st Aid, Fishing, Archery, Shooting, Hiking, Camping, Canoeing, Firearms, and Forestry.”
- Tuition is $250 for the week, including food, lodging and equipment. Please check the Fish & Wildlife website (http://vtfishandwildlife.com) for more information, including scholarship availability.
Vermont Youth Development Program info:
- This is a great infoGraphic!
- “I would nominate YDP because there are so many less fortunate kids that deserve a chance at things that some of us take for granted. I feel everyone deserves a chance and unfortunately, children can’t pick that they are in these situations but they can sure try to make a better life for themselves if given the opportunities. I also feel there are some kids that just need a bit of guidance and without the right parenting they don’t always get it so this program can help with that.”
