Sarah was a first-time angler at Camp Coyote. Day three includes basic canoeing techniques taught by Conservation Department naturalists. The campers learn canoeing skills, such as paddling straight and turning. After returning to the nature center, campers learn to appreciate an often misunderstood reptile, the snake. Day four is better than baseball.
Coyotes have the opportunity to show off their canoeing skills on the Gasconade River.
Past Coyote Camper Samantha said canoeing was her favorite activity at Camp Coyote. Though they have a good time, campers realize the river is a force to be reckoned with. Camper Sheron summed it all up. The river deserves respect because it can be dangerous and you can drown. Day five, the final day, is fun for all and sad for some because the end is near.
