The Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department will be offering Junior Warden Weekend to be held at the Edward F. Kehoe Conservation Camp in Castleton on July 27-28.

The weekend is open to ages 15-17 and is the perfect way for teens to unplug and engage with peers outdoors before heading back to the classroom.  The weekend is capped at 25 participants, but there is still space for new registrants.  

The cost for the weekend is $125, which includes all meals.  Sponsorships are available on a limited basis.
