Welcome to Potawatomi Wildlife Park, a perfect destination for scouts and youth groups seeking educational adventures in nature. Camping opportunities are exclusive to scouts, 4-H groups, and youth organizations, ensuring a focus on learning and conservation. Scouts benefit from discounted kayak and canoe rentals, fishing gear, firewood, nice open camping areas, and access to our observation field. In exchange for a nominal fee of $100 or four hours of community service, which can involve tasks like trail maintenance, visitor center upkeep, and invasive species removal.
