MDC Youth Camps at Mark Twain Lake

Missouri Department of Conservation will host a daylong Hunter Education Youth Camp in early July for youth ages 11-15 at Mark Twain Lake this summer.

Campers will actively participate in hands-on outdoor skills while also obtaining their Hunter Education Certification. Participants will have the opportunity to learn archery skills, fishing practices, shotgun shooting, and more during these day-long camps.

In addition, kids will learn overall conservation management and ethics.

The girls’ day camp will be held July 9 from 8am until 5:30pm while the boys’ day camp will be held July 10 from 8am until 5:30pm.

Both day camps are free and will be held at Mark Twain Lake’s Frank Russell Campground off Highway J in Monroe City.

Register campers by calling Conservation Agent Jessica Eckelkamp at 660-651-0218 or Kylee Korte at 660-785-2420.
