Enroll in Texas Brigades youth camps through Mar. 16

The Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service (AgriLife) began registration for its Texas Brigades summer wildlife leadership camps, according to AgriLife Today.

“While our camps feature quail, deer, bass, ducks and livestock, the aim is to equip young people with the resources and determination needed to really make a difference in wildlife conservation and proper land management throughout their lives,” said Dr. Dale Rollins, the camps’ coordinator.

Camps will be held at various locations across the state with each camp limited to 20-30 students ages 13 through 17. Tuition is $400 per cadet per camp, but sponsors are available to provide financial aid when requested. Registration deadline is March 16.

The camp dates and locations are:

• Rolling Plains Bobwhite Brigade, June 13-17, Centennial Lodge, Coleman
