Fishing Camp Summer Update

It has been a great summer so far for our fishing campers! From Cobia in the Chesapeake Bay, to monster catfish in the James River, to lunker largemouth bass, the kids have been reeling them in all over the state.



James River Flathead Catfish

 The James River has been fishing very well this summer for smallmouth bass, especially within the Richmond City limits, so if you are looking for a way to beat the heat, head on down to the James River Park and try your hand for some bronzebacks. 

Our Adventure campers at Christchurch School had some great success out on the Chesapeake Bay fishing with Captains Neil Renouf and Tony Horsely of Old Domion Outdoors . If you are looking for a great day trip for kids close to Richmond, Neil and Tony can put you on some fish.

Our camps have been booming in Richmond and Northern Virginia.

We are looking forward to some declining temperatures in the coming week and some more bent rods. We only have a handful of spots left until the last few weeks of August when we have some more availability. If you have some openings in the calendars and are looking for another week of camp, check out availability on our website.

Stay cool out there!

Nice Cobia!

Mountain Biking Camps continue...

The past two weeks have been filled with riding and enjoying the beautiful trails Richmond has to offer.  We visited the James River Park numerous times riding at Belle Isle, Forest Hill Park, and The Wetlands.  The Wetlands served as a great place to cool off with a quick swim after exhausting ourselves on the trails. 



The campers also got to experience some new places like Poor Farm Park in Ashland, Powhite Park, Rockwood Park in Chesterfield, and Deep Run Park in the west end.  The riders really enjoyed getting on some new terrain, challenging themselves, and having fun riding their bikes.

It was great to see each rider learn about riding and progress in their own ways.  Everyone improved from the first week and really enjoyed getting dirty and tired each day!

Ready to Ride!!!

     Thanks to all the riders who came out to learn about riding and all the trails there are to enjoy in and around Richmond.  We are offering more week-long mountain bike camps in August too (weeks of Aug. 1st, 8th, 15th, and 22nd)!  If you didn't get enough riding in then sign up and come out for some more outdoor fun!!!  Keep pedaling and remember to GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY!
