I lead the organization of an event called Youth Outdoor Activity Day. It takes place on Sunday the 27th in Alexandria, MN. We will have 45 activities for the 2,000+ kids that are expected to attend. The activities are almost everything you can do in the outdoors (fire building, trap shooting, tomahawk throwing, archery, outdoor cooking, shelter building, crossbow shooting, climbing wall, mock blood trail, shoot/don't shoot course, geocaching, orienteering, duck calling, birdhouse building, fly fishing, casting clinic, pollinator plot, mountain biking, ATVing, etc). Free lunch for everyone, free tshirts for the kids. A lot of other prizes for the kids including BB guns, bows, and rods/reels. I think we spent about $7500 on those three things alone. All free. We are trying really hard to get kids interested in outdoor activities and off the couch. If you know anyone within a few hour drive of west central MN, please let them know about it and visit youthoutdooractivityday.org.
And yes, we plan to have a DVD loop of Fresh Tracks/OYOA playing in the lunch area!
