Boys and girls from the 4-H chapters in Camp and Franklin Counties got to spend a couple days at Lake Bob Sandlin last week. They caught a few catfish and sunfish, as well as several turtles, learned about different animals by their pelts and skulls as well as the traps used to catch them, how to cast a fishing line, and how to make a nutritionally-balanced trail mix. They took a walk through the forest and learned about fire safety, were instructed in the art of boat-building, and invited to view different critters such as toads, and scorpions that glow in black light.
