A.C.E. Camp explores ways to enjoy and conserve our aquatic environments in and around Lake Dardanelle.
This camp spans two days. Camp will be held 5-9 pm on Friday June 20th and 9am-2pm on Saturday, June 21st, and teach kids ages 10-13 about many of the creatures that call the area home, as well as teach them ways to get out and enjoy our water resources.
Camp will include fishing, kayaking, and many other fun activities that will teach them about the fish, snakes, and bugs that can be found in the lake. Space is limited so get the $35 registration fee in no later than June 6, 2014.
