Michigan United Conservation Clubs has operated summer youth camp programs continuously since 1947. During this time, more than 55,000 youth have learned to enjoy the outdoors safely and have left camp with a deeper appreciation and respect for the natural world they live in. The Michigan OutofDoors Youth Camp is locaded through the summer at the restored Cedar Lake Outdoor Center near Chelsea, MI. This camp exceeds any other youth nature education programming offered by most camps in Michigan by including conservation and ecology lessons as part of each and every camp day. During the week at camp, youth learn about ecological concepts and broaden their awareness of conservation issues through hands-on nature experience.
