LDWF to host Father-Child outdoor camp at Woodworth Education Center in May

The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) will host its annual Father-Child Families Understanding Nature (FUN) Camp on May 1-2 at the Woodworth Education Center, located at 661 Robinson Bridge Road.

The camp is designed for fathers and children ages 9-13, offering a weekend outdoors focused on building bonds and learning outdoor skills.

Participants will take part in hands-on activities while spending time in a natural setting. The program also emphasizes family connection and introducing children to outdoor recreation and wildlife appreciation.

Pre-registration is required, and space is limited. The cost is $50 per family, which includes one father and one child. Additional children may attend for $25 each, with a limit of two children per adult.

The registration fee covers meals, lodging, and supplies, including tents. However, participants are responsible for bringing their own bed linens and sleeping bags.
