With shooting sports, ATVs, fishing and more, Camp Wildlife offers campers a chance to experience the great outdoors like never before. Campers learn hunting skills, shooting sports, wildlife ecology and outdoor survival skills from counselors chosen for their expertise in natural resources education and wildlife studies. With activities based on age and experience, our exceptional outdoor programs promote self-esteem and self-reliance.

Two tracks are available:

Standard Track: Activities include all the fun, adventure and hands-on learning always offered at Camp Wildlife--basic shooting skills and marksmanship training, archery, ATV operation and safety, outdoor survival skills and more! 

Advanced Track: Track 2 takes adventure to the next level with standard activities plus 3-D archery, enhanced hunting skills and advanced rifle and clay shooting instruction!

This summer, Camp Wildlife will have a new home – Camp Bob Cooper in Summerton, S.C. – a site operated by Clemson for over 50 years. Located on a 110-acre peninsula on Lake Marion on the shores of the Wyboo Creek, Camp Bob Cooper offers

·   a wonderful waterfront, complete with certified lifeguards, featuring “The Blob” – an all-time favorite, gigantic, inflatable water tube that thrills campers year after year;

·   modern, air-conditioned lodging and dining facilities just yards from the lake;

·   large recreational areas for basketball, beach volleyball, softball and football;

·   a large gymnasium with ample floor space and classrooms for group exercises;

·   nature trails; and

·   excellent adventure courses to include a state-of-the-art, 50-foot climbing tower.
