SDWF Youth Conservation Camp
For the last 61 years, the South Dakota Wildlife Federation Youth Conservation Camp has been made available to South Dakota teens to not only introduce them to the outdoors but also to open wide the door to learning new hobbies, skills, and trades for possible vocations in conservation and wildlife to preserve our state heritage! This camp held in the Black Hills is about more than about getting kids outside – it’s about learning how to give back to their communities! Year after year, campers build lifelong friendships with others from across the state, and it’s so incredible to see.
Our organization, as a non-profit, is known as South Dakota Wildlife Federation Youth Conservation Camp. SDWF is an affiliate of the National Wildlife Federation, the largest conservation organization in the world. The close working relationship between the state and national organizations ensures effective, coordinated conservation action at all levels of government. For over sixty-five years, SDWF has been leading the fight to protect the interests of South Dakota’s current and future outdoor sports enthusiasts. This camp is just one small part of the greater mission of SDWF, but it is incredibly impactful to those who have attended in the past, and they have a BLAST! We still have a lot more available spots for campers to attend and available sponsorships!
