WINKELMAN NATURAL RESOURCE CONSERVATION DISTRICT
Notice is hereby given to the members of the Winkelman NRCD and to the general public that the Board of Supervisors will hold a special meeting open to the public via teleconference on April 5, 2016 at 7:00 pm. See agenda link below:
Please see the attached flyer/application for information about the Natural Resource Conservation Workshop for Arizona Youth (NRCWAY for short).
This is a week-long camp for kids entering grades 8-12 in the fall, and is at the James 4-H Camp between Prescott and Jerome (on Mingus Mountain).
The dates of the camp are July 25-29, 2016 and the cost is only $150.00 per student – WHAT A DEAL!!!
This camp is sponsored by the Arizona Section, Society for Range Management, U of A Cooperative Extension, and 4-H Youth Development.
The camp has a pond for fishing and swimming, a ball field, and other recreational amenities. Campers get to experience hands-on activities related to natural resources, and learn directly from professionals who are invited guests. The purpose of the camp is youth outreach, and to give them insight into a career in natural resources.
If you have, or know a kid that might be interested, please pass along this flyer to them.
The deadline for applications is May 1st so there is plenty of time!
Last year the camp didn’t occur, because not enough campers registered, so let’s get the word out this year.
Arizona Envirothon is seeking volunteers for Saturday, April 9 to be judges at its 2016 competition in Peoria, AZ (Lake Pleasant Desert Outdoor Center). See information link below.
A friendly reminder about our community workshop taking place on Friday at 2pm in Kearny.Enclosed please find a flyer designed by students with more detailed information and agenda.
Look forward to seeing many of you on Friday!
Sincerely,
