Program details

Campers have a unique opportunity to meet Vermont State Game Wardens, foresters, fisheries and wildlife biologists, and others who work in the outdoors. We offer hands-on learning experiences on fish, wildlife, ecology, forestry, first aid and outdoor safety topics and so much more. There are opportunities for hiking, canoeing, fishing, archery, building bluebird boxes and other fun activities.

One-week sessions run from June to August. Specific dates for boys and girls regular and advanced sessions are listed in the camp application each year.

The Green Mountain Conservation Camps have two locations. One site is pleasantly nestled in the woods alongside Buck Lake in Woodbury, Vermont. Our Kehoe Camp site is located on Lake Bomoseen in Castleton, Vermont and features a particularly beautiful mountain view.
