Youth Programs


WSF reaches out to the next generation of conservationists and outdoors adventurers with Shooting, Hunting & Ethics Education Programs (S.H.E.E.P.) and the Youth Wildlife Conservation Experience (YWCE).

S.H.E.E.P. runs yearlong coast-to-coast, bringing quality outdoor education experiences to young people in their home communities. The program features hands-on learning about wildlife, habitat, conservation, outdoor recreation, shooting sports and more.

The YWCE occurs during the WSF’s annual Sheep Show® convention in Reno, NV. The multi-day event welcomes elementary through high school students and their families to learn hands-on about wild sheep, the natural world, shooting and archery, survival, hunter safety, conservation careers and many more exciting subjects.
