This program is supported by the 2023 Virginia Wildlife Grant Program through a partnership between the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources and the Wildlife Foundation of Virginia. It is hosted by the Shenandoah Reel Women (SRW) in partnership with the Friends of the North Fork of the Shenandoah River (FNFSR).
During this camp, young women will be mentored by established SRW members and volunteers. While they are introduced to the art of fly fishing, they will learn the basics of knot tying, the use of appropriate equipment, and good casting techniques. Rods, reels, and tool lanyards will be available for use during camp and will become the property of camp participants upon completion of the program. Activities will also include river entomology, watershed conservation education, micro and macro invertebrates, and kayaking.
