This program is supported by the 2023 Virginia Wildlife Grant Program through a partnership between the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources and the Wildlife Foundation of Virginia.  It is hosted by the Shenandoah Reel Women (SRW) in partnership with the Friends of the North Fork of the Shenandoah River (FNFSR).  During these camps, young women (and now men!) will be mentored by established SRW members and volunteers.  While they are introduced to the art of fly fishing, they will learn the basics of knot tying, the use of appropriate equipment, and good casting techniques.  Activities will also include river entomology, watershed conservation education, and team building.
