All activities will take place on or near the property of Messiah University in Grantham, Pennsylvania. Students will have dorm lodging, meals, and class time at Messiah.

The majority of the time at camp will be spent in a classroom setting, but many sessions will also take place on the stream or outside. The curriculum covers various topics in conservation and fly fishing.

Students are provided with 3 meals per day plus an evening snack. Meals are buffet style with several entrée selections available.

Some classes are held in the evenings after fishing.

There are 10 fishing sessions on the Yellow Breeches held prior to breakfast and after dinner each day.

Classes are taught by more than 25 different instructors, all experts in their field.

Fly fishing equipment is available for loan if needed.

In addition to classroom time, the students all participate in constructing a stream habitat improvement project

The Leon Chandler Award is presented at graduation to the current student who most displays leadership qualities in the field of conservation.
