Camps provide another opportunity for PAL volunteers to education PAL kids in various life skills.

This camp is a partnership with the Minnesota State Patrol. The camp is designed
to reach at risk kids. It is an intense training camp meant to instill pride
in self and team, gain confidence, and teach conflict resolution skills. There is
a low officer to student ratio which makes training more personal. There is also an on-going follow-up with each kid by one of the instructors.

emphasis of this camp is on science education and study skills.

skills are taught which include working as a team, survival and safety skills, and
a respect for the environment.
