Teachers and students spend a week at Camp Esther Applegate, on Lake of the Woods near Klamath Falls, Oregon, learning about careers in natural resources and how to manage the diverse resources that make up an ecosystem. Participants spend their days in the field and classroom learning about many natural resource disciplines, such as forestry, fisheries, wildlife, range, riparian, geology, recreation, wilderness, and cultural resources. At the end of the week, new found knowledge and team building skills are combined as students and teachers develop and present a land management plan. Experience the challenge of developing a group natural resource plan. No charge to apply.
