For over 40 years, the Virginia Association of Soil and Water Conservation Districts has sponsored a week-long summer conservation camp for Virginia high school students (currently enrolled in grades 9th-12th)<\/em> on the campus of Virginia Tech. The program brings together about 70 interested students for a week of learning about Virginia\u2019s natural resources from conservation professionals and faculty from Virginia Tech. Most of the instruction is hands-on and outdoors.<\/p>\n
