WEF'S "KOINS for KIDS"

FUNDS KIDS TO KAMP
The Wild Elk Federation has provided funding for two future conservationists to attend the Cenalta Youth Conservation Academy.

The Academy which was held July 20th - 25th, 2008 near Breton , Alberta offered a unique experience for youths aged 12-15 years of age.

It was not only educational, but offered the opportunity for meeting new friends while participating in many outdoor recreational activities.

The theme of the camp was to simulate a tent survival camp with everyone working as a team and taking care of their own personal hygiene and belongings.

Through film presentations, and small group activities, participants examined the components of: Firearm Safety and Handling, Archery, Water Safety, and Hunter Education. Other activities may have included: bird watching, leadership, night sky, fishing equipment and boat operator's pleasure craft certificate.

Funding was provided through the Wild Elk Federations
"Koins for Kids" program where monies raised in this program are directed specifically to community youth wildlife conservation activities.

The Wild Elk Federation, headquartered in Leduc, Alberta is a nonprofit wildlife conservation organization whose mission is to ensure the future of elk and other wildlife.
