Campers at SFA Pineywoods Camp enjoy learning about white-tailed deer from Andy McCarty, an alumnus from the Arthur Temple College of Forestry and Agriculture at Stephen F. Austin State University.

The Stephen F. Austin State University Pineywoods Camp program celebrates its 10th year of summer camp programs for youth during the month of June. Camps offered during this time will include unique outdoor experiences in the East Texas woods that encourage hands-on discovery of the diverse ecosystems of the area.

During each fun-filled week, campers will be introduced to the wonders of nature through hiking, songs, games and art projects. Participants will develop skills, hear from expert speakers, and have opportunities for exploration and investigation.
