IA Born Report post Posted March 22, 2016 I spoke to the main organizer of the Happy Jack youth camp earlier today and told him I'd get the word out that we need mentors to help take kids out hunting. This camp is at the V-Bar-V Ranch just south of Happy Jack and caters to youth hunters with OTC tags in 5A and 5B, as well as those kids who have the lottery 6A tag. I know Christian (Christian2) on here is at the camp every year and this is his last camp as a youth hunter. From talking to the organizer, Tim Denny, it sounds like Christian is already talking about coming back as a mentor next year. That's about as respectable and commendable as it gets for hunters giving back in my book! So with that, please consider joining us at the Happy Jack Camp as much as you can 14-17 April. I had to miss last year due to a soccer tournament, but I will be there with my daughter and taking other kids out, too. Its one of the absolute most rewarding things I do as a hunter. The kids' smiles make the long days worth every minute! We REALLY need mentors! If you're reading this and want to bring your kid, there should be plenty of room. I can't upload the flier and registration doc because they are currently word docs, send me a pm with your email and I'll get it to you. In the meantime, I'll work on converting it to a pdf when I get to my other computer and upload it back here. Jack Vincent, if you're reading this, its a great way to come up and scout for your 5A hunt and get ready for your kids to be at this one! 2016 Turkey Camp Flyer.pdf 2016 MMLB Turkey Camp Registration Form.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IA Born Report post Posted April 8, 2016 Bump this back up. Opening day for youth is a week from today and we really need mentors at the youth camp. Parents, if you're bringing your kids up and are decent turkey hunters, please consider mentoring, too! I'll be hunting with my daughter and mentoring other kids, all weekend.
