The organization hosts two weekend camps per year; spring fishing camp & fall hunting camp. All first year hunting campers get an immersive, hands-on approach to the Hunter Education course as well as Ohio Division of Wildlife instructed classes. Other highlights of the camp include range activity with air rifles, muzzleloaders, shotguns, pistols, turkey and deer clinics, knife making and primiti
ve living. The fishing campers will not only explore the different types of fishing, but also learn how to tie flies, make lures, make a filet knife, canoe, cook and make their own fishing rods. The organization was established in 2008 to create one of the most dynamic outdoor youth camps in the country. Lake & Trails camps are based in Ohio but welcomes campers from all over to practice their skills they learn wherever they may end up hunting and fishing.
