Overview
The Environmental Leadership for Youth summer camps are hosted by the OSU Department of Fisheries, Wildlife and Conservation Sciences. These camps are intended to increase interest in the natural sciences and increase access to higher education for underrepresented youth in Oregon through hands-on activities and engagement. The ELY residential summer camps are designed for youth entering 9th – 12th grades.
We are now planning for summer 2024!
