“Nature is pleased with simplicity. And nature is no dummy.” –Sir Isaac Newton
Exhibit Details
Many a marksman has been cultivated at the Camp Jubilee / Ware / Explorer Base Field Sports department. For the Cub program, bibi guns and bows & arrows are used while the Scouts BSA use .22 rifles, shotguns, and also participate in archery.
One of the most important aspects of a Nature department is having plenty to look at and learn about. The Nature department at Camp Ware may have changed locations over the years, but the great posters and critters move with it.
