cnymuzguy Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 These camps are good introduction for kids to learn about hunting, fishing, camping, etc. They can't get enough kids or adults to work at several of the camps! How sad, I wanted my grand kids to go to Colby, but it doesn't look like it will happen. If you have college kids or know someone here is a link for jobs.https://www.facebook.com/NYSDECsummercamps/ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackbeltbill Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Back when,I was 14 and the 1st year in a Gun Club,I was picked to spend time up at the DeBruce Camp. I think it was at least 4 days that Summer. Had alot of Fun and Learned a few things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nytracker Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 If you were at the DeBruce club you have to expand on that ... how was the fishing ? Just not right mentioning the DeBruce club with no comment to the fly fishing . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just not right mentioning the DeBruce club with no comment to the fly fishing . So we are talking 1974 when,I was 14. Monroe- Chester Sportsman's Club sponsored me for the 4 or 5 days. I remember learning how to Row a Boat on a Lake and some Archery Practice as well as multiple Hikes where the instructor would point out the names of different plants and trees.

Farflung Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 hope they find some folks. Good first job for someone going into forestry or wild life management. I went to Colby years ago, as did my son and stepson. Lots of folks that go onto professional positions in DEC and other agencies start here. I know I did. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
