We will have mentors and guides as well as assistance from the Arizona Game and Fish Department. We try to partner every hunter with a guide if they need one.
The chapter provides all of the food and drinks from Friday through Sunday morning. For many campers, the famous and delicious Dutch oven desserts are a camp highlight! There is no cost to attend the camp.
Our camp location is big enough for all camping types from a tent to a fifth wheel so bring the whole family!

Also remember that if you are drawn for the youth hunt you can purchase a companion javelina tag to go with the deer tag. Please contact Arizona Game and Fish to purchase the tag.
In order to participate in the camp, the hunter needs to have completed the Arizona Game and Fish Hunter Safety Course. Also, please make sure that the hunter is comfortable shooting their rifle and it is sighted in.

On Saturday, March 16th, the Arizona Chapter of SCI in partnership with Wildlife Water Works and the Arizona Game and Fish Department will be repairing three water catchments in 30B. Start time will be 7am in Benson.
The project will consist of removing weeds and debris from the aprons of the water catchment and surrounding perimeter, cleaning, repairing, and surface coating the aprons as well as fence repair as needed.
The benefit of this is to rejuvenate the old catchments resulting in them being more efficient at collecting water.
We recommend volunteers bring work gloves if you have them (we will have some available), wear protective clothing, sunscreen, and a chair to take breaks in.
AZSCI will provide water, fruit, and lunch.
