We are excited to announce that Darke County Conservation Day Camp is back! On June 10-11, 2026, Darke Soil & Water Conservation District (SWCD) will host Darke County Conservation Day Camp. This camp is for current 1st through 4th grade students. During the event, students will get outside and learn about how their daily actions affect wildlife, water, soil and the people around them. The goal of this camp is to provide an interactive and hands-on approach to learning about the environment. The two-day camp will be held at Chenoweth Trails (440 Greenville-Nashville Road, Greenville) from 9:00am-3:00pm.

Camp Counselors
Darke Soil & Water Conservation District (SWCD) is seeking responsible, energetic high school and college students to serve as counselors for 2026 Conservation Day Camp at Chenoweth Trails on June 10th and 11th. These counselors will serve as guides for the groups of elementary students or as helpers for one of the activity stations. The goal of this camp is to provide students the opportunity to get outside and learn about how their daily actions affect wildlife, water, soil and the people around them.
Serving as a camp counselor is a way to develop leadership, responsibility and teamwork skills. It is also a great way to build a leadership portfolio for future goals such as National Honor Society, 4-H Camp Counselor, Junior Fair Board member and applications for college, scholarships and jobs. Counselor Applications are due by March 28th at 4:00p in the Darke SWCD office.
