Forkhorn Camp scholarships available




The Arrowhead Chapter of the Minnesota Deer Hunters Association has scholarship money to sponsor local boys and girls who would like to attend a Forkhorn Camp this summer.

Three levels of camp experience are offered for youth ages 11-17. Forkhorn I camps for ages 11-15 are designed for beginning hunters; Forkhorn II camps for ages 12-16 are advanced camps with an emphasis on bow hunting; Forkhorn III camps for ages 14-17 are designed for youth with hunting experience who wish to expand their knowledge of big and small game hunting tips and techniques. Interested youths should apply soon as the camp is open to young hunters all around the state.

The chapter has scholarships of up to $375 available. Money for the scholarships comes primarily from the Hides for Habitat fundraising project that is done each fall during the deer hunting season and from major fundraisers such as the annual chapter banquet, which this year will be held June 3 at the American Legion in Grand Marais.
