The need for camp investmentWe need your help! To continue to host top notch conservation education programs, Whiskey Mountain Conservation Camp is in need of some basic, but significant, renovations. Without investment, the Camp’s historic buildings, and the learning opportunities it has hosted may be lost forever. The Wyoming Game and Fish Commission feels the Camp is its “Crown Jewel” and voted to invest $2 million toward the $4.5 million renovation project to begin in summer 2017. Working together, the WGFD and the NBSIA hope to preserve and enhance the Camp in a

manner that complements the surrounding landscape and ensures it remains an outstanding facility for wildlife and conservation education.

The Camp sits within the Torrey Valley, outside of Dubois, and the WGFD’s Whiskey Basin Wildlife Habitat Management Area, which provides crucial winter habitat for bighorn sheep, elk and mule deer. This unique location has introduced generations of campers to outdoor skills and world-class wildlife. A renovated

camp will begin a new era of conservation education

and continue to inspire the next generation of conservation leaders.

How your investment helps

• Help preserve this one-of-a-kind camp with basic infrastructure needs as well as an updated kitchen, dining area, ADA guest room and classrooms.

• Grow conservation education efforts across Wyoming. Your help will ensure the Camp can continue to function and will expand the overall summer capacity and ADA-compliant facilities for more people to enjoy.

• Help the bighorn sheep population in the Dubois area by raising awareness and increasing conservation education directed toward these animals.

• Facilitate the use of Commission dollars across Wyoming on WGFD habitat projects such as the Statewide Mule Deer Initiative, Squirrel Creek Wildlife Restoration, South Pass Aspen, and LaBarge Creek Fish Passage.

Please consider giving today and remember every donation makes a difference!
