AES Wapiti Weekend for Youth (Very Picture Heavy)

[rossislider]

After a hiatus for the past few years, the Arizona Elk Society once again held their annual Wapiti Weekend for youth. This year they moved it a little closer to the valley in what will likely be the new home for their annual Wapiti Weekend and many of their hunt camps, at St Joseph's Youth Camp up at Mormon Lake near Flagstaff. This was the first time my wife and I were able to take out kids but it hopefully won't be the last, the kids were begging to go again next year as soon as we pulled out of camp. The location was great, the kids loved the MANY planned activities, made a plethora of new "best friends", AES cooked and provided more great food than we could eat, and all the kids took home lots of goodies (fishing poles for every child from Cabelas, multi tools, lunch boxes, hats, hunting and fishing licenses, etc). We basically just showed up and let the kids have a blast! Huge thanks to Ken Turer, Steve Clark, Greg Godbehere, and the many volunteers from AES who made it such a great experience. I highly recommend you keep an eye out for the event next year as it will likely fill very fast. There were to many highlight and pictures to share them all, but here are a few:
