Applications due for fishing youth camp

Registration is under way for a summer fishing camp for ages 13 to 15 at Lake Logan near Canton, an always-popular event.

The Trout Unlimited’s ninth annual Rivercourse Coldwater Conservation and Fly Fishing Youth Camp is designed to teach the ethics of coldwater conservation. Campers will learn about geology, entomology, herpetology, stream restoration techniques, wetlands ecology and environmental policy. In addition, fly-fishing and fly tying instruction will reinforce traditional values of patience, technique, attention to detail and a general love of the outdoors.

It will be held June 17-22 at Lake Logan Center. Attendance is limited to 16 boys and girls, ages 13 to 15. The cost of camp is $595, that includes everything.

Registration deadline is March 15. Tuition is not due until candidates have been notified of selection.
