The Junior Deer camp is an annual event our chapter puts on to help get youth excited about hunting and the outdoors.
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!
If you have attended our camp in the past please note our new location:
The camp is now located on the Buenos Aires Refuge, at approximately Milepost 4, west of the town of Arivaca. The best landmark to use for the entrance is a communications tower on the south side of the Arivaca-Sasabe Highway.
The youth hunts are located in units 36A, 36B, and 36C to get a tag for these hunts using the 2022 Arizona Game and Fish Department’s deer regulations make sure to put in for hunt numbers 1170 (36A) and 1171 (36B) or 1172 (36C). 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.
If you have any questions for the camp please contact us. We look forward to seeing you at camp!
