Service Area: La Crosse area
How does Coulee KAMO work? We are a 100% volunteer, nonprofit group. Our mentors plan, coordinate, and finance activities year around. These activities are free and open to the public and are viewable in the link below. Interested parties can ask Mike to be included on our activity mailing list which is sent out every few weeks. The activities range widely and are intended to expose youth to the sheer joy of being outdoors so that they will become lifelong enthusiasts and stewards of the resource. Mentors teach their skills to kids usually in a groups format. Activities such as fishing or hunting can be one on one (these mentors have to complete background screening first). We encourage parent participation. Our kids are generally between 9-15, but younger siblings and friends often come along with the parent. We encourage families who are frequent participants in our activities to enroll a child as a kamokid, which is free. Kamokids may enjoy a few more perks such as getting invited to extra things we put together which don’t appear on our activity schedule.
