This camp is designed to not only get kids interested in wildlife and the outdoors, but also introduce them to amazing organisms that live right in our own “backyard!” More details will be distributed to those interested in registering their kids. For kides entering grades 3-5.

Paradise Fears is a six-piece pop rock group from Vermillion, South Dakota.

Soon to be known for an energetic l...ive show (think N’Sync meets a UFC Cage Match), this pop punk ensemble is often compared to the likes of Taking Back Sunday and Mayday Parade. Born in the heartland and bred in front of a microphone, the future holds promise for the PF boys.
