Talk About What to Expect
Summer camp can be a big adventure for kids! Before the first day, talk with your child about what camp will be like — the activities, new friends, and routines. Sharing expectations helps reduce anxiety and builds excitement for the experience ahead.
"Camp is not just a place to play — it’s where kids grow, explore, learn, make friends, have fun, and discover themselves."
-Wade Warren
Preparing Your Child for fishing
Teach your child how to properly hold a fishing rod.
Explain water safety rules and staying alert near the pond or lake.
Discuss what to expect: quiet waiting, patience, and celebrating a catch.
Encourage confidence and excitement for the fishing experience.
Practice Skills at Home
You can introduce basic fishing skills at home or at a local pond. Practice casting, knot-tying, and handling small fish (if possible). These small activities help kids build confidence and excitement for the real camp experience.
Final Thoughts
Fishing is more than a camp activity — it’s a timeless tradition that encourages patience, connection, learning, and fun. Whether it’s a first catch, a peaceful moment by the water, or shared laughter, this experience fosters family bonding, confidence, and a love for the outdoors that lasts long after camp ends.
