What is it?
Camp Neotribe is a Rabbit/Squirrel hunt designed to give (5) LSBA members a chance to get their little ones (5-11 year olds) into the field for some small game bowhunting, outdoor activities, and a little bowhunting/campfire/camping education. Just because they can't take IBEP yet and participate in some of the other youth hunts doesn't mean they aren't bowhunters too!

When is it?
10am Saturday, May 30 - Noon on Sunday, May 31.
(Date changed to avoid Memorial Day conflicts)

Where is it?
North-East Texas, 200 acres of private property in Camp County, TX.

What's the cost?
No charge for either parent or youth to hunt. Members must provide own food & drinks (except for the hotdogs & smores at dinner), camping gear, 1 bag of corn (which will be used at your stand location), and a pop-up blind for best results. Youths will need the $6 license from TPWD.

Itinerary of Activities:
10am - Parents & Campers arrive/meet & greet.
10:30am - Noon Pitch tents, gather firewood, draw stand locations and set-up groundblinds/stands.
Noon - 1pm - LUNCH TIME (PBJ, Hotdogs, Sandwiches)
1pm - 3pm - Archery Range
3pm - 4pm - Gettin' Ready for the stand.
4pm - near dark - Stalk hunting rabbits or stand hunting over feeders for squirrel & rabbits. High shot % on squirrels over corn on this place...a few bunnies.
DINNER TIME = Hotdog roasting, smores, & campfire stories!
Sunday Daylight - 10am - Back to the stands for squirrels or stalk hunt for rabbits.
10am - Clean-up, break camp, load up, and hit the road!

This hunt is being organized with the youths who are too young to participate in some of the other LSBA Youth opportunities in mind. Parents must be with your child at all times in the field. All of the stand locations are accessable by vehicle & short walk.

Parents are welcome to bring your bows too! You can also take small game and hogs while on the stand with your child if the opportunity presents itself. Any child camper that is shooting a heavy enough draw weight bow for hogs may also take one given the chance.

Since the is no fee, there is no deposit...first 5 members to post here on this thread are our campers.
