Local Youth Selected to Participate in Texas Wildlife Leadership Camp

San Antonio, TX – Alice Torres from Eagle Pass of Maverick County has been chosen to participate in the Texas Brigades’ 22nd Battalion of the Rolling Plains Bobwhite Brigade program this summer.  She was selected based on her academic records, interest in wildlife and natural resources, and leadership activities.

The Texas Brigades’ mission is to educate and empower youths with leadership skills and knowledge in wildlife, fisheries, and land stewardship to become conservation ambassadors for a sustained natural resource legacy.  This is the 22nd year of the Brigades.

There are seven Brigade camps being held this summer: two Buckskin Brigades, two Bobwhite Brigades, Bass Brigade, Waterfowl Brigade, and Ranch Brigade.

Due to the high interest of these camps, the application season has closed for this year. If you would like to receive emails regarding the 2015 camps, please feel free to contact us.
