I got invited to attend a non profit youth hunt camp and was asked to record a podcast there. While I wasn't sure what to expect. Everything exceeded my expectations. The company, kids, hosts, land owner and everyone involved have really created a great family environment for Kids and people of all ages to get in the woods and disconnected from the grid. I want to thank all involved and I hope I captured some of the greatness of this camp in this part 1 episode.
