The Expo provides Wisconsin students with learning and participation opportunities in the outdoors, the Expo 2009 will communicate the relevance of wildlife and habitat management in our lives. The Expo 2009 will teach outdoors skills, encourage ethical behavior and perpetuate Wisconsin’s hunting, fishing and conservation heritage. Throughout the planning for this event, we are concentrating on children in order to build the heritage of Wisconsin’s commitment to outdoor activities.

The Expo 2009 will focus on “hands-on” activities and participation, and will use these opportunities to introduce schoolchildren to wildlife-related outdoor skills, natural resources, conservation and management concepts. The Expo 2008 will be structured with at least six separate “camps” where kids will be able to learn about and participate in outdoor activities:Archery, Dogs, Trail Recreation, Fishing, Firearm Safety, Wildlife and Heritagel.

At Expo 2008, held in May, 2500+ fourth and fifth grade students from throughout Wisconsin participated in “see, touch, and do” activities such as fishing, archery, outdoor heritage and natural resource conservation concepts. At least 500 teachers and chaperones accompanied theses students on Friday. Consequently, with about 350 volunteers, at least 3350 students, teachers and volunteers attended the Expo, in spite of high fuel prices.
