Mentored Jr. Elk Hunt Camp &
Youth Outdoor Skills Camps
Our Mentored Junior Elk Hunt Camp is held in October and is a great place for young hunters

have several other Youth Camps throughout the year, including Wapiti Weekend and Wild in the City.

AES Heroes Rising Outdoors
Program for Disabled Veteran Hunters
Heroes Rising Outdoors® was formed to provide residents of the State of Arizona, who are severely injured service personnel the chance to get out and participate in activities that they may have felt that they would never be able to do again due to their disabilities. We focus solely on putting these wounded Veterans in a beautiful outdoor setting and giving them the opportunity to heal while enjoying the Hunt. Arizona’s great outdoors is some of the best therapy these warriors will find.
