The 2025 Youth Outdoor Fun Day was an awesome and wonderful event!

We started out with sunshine and cool breezes for this year’s Youth Outdoor Fun Day. It was a very fun and enjoyable day for all.

The kids were able to go fishing in the trout tank and bring home the fish they caught.

~

They learned gun safety and how to shoot .22 pistols with Oconto County Sheriff’s Deputies.

~

The archery range was very busy with kids learning how to shoot a bow and arrow at a target. Look at all of those bullseyes!!

~

Clay target shooting was learned using a couple of different shotgun sizes.

~

There was fly fishing instruction, as well as bait casting education. A fishing game was just the thing for the little ones.

It was a fun and enjoyable day for all!
