School Activities

Youth Conservation Day is an outdoor learning day for Crawford County students.  Held in late September at Sugar Creek Bible Camp, area schools bring their 5th, 6th, or 7th grade students to this fun-filled day.  Presentations cover a wide array of topics, such as Forestry, Stream Life, Soils, Fisheries, Wildlife, and Contour Strip Cropping.  Presentations are led by partners such as the WI DNR, NRCS, SW Badger RC&D, and USFWS.
