Campy Sycamore, which is located near Sinnamahoning, Pa., is intent upon keeping the hunting and shooting sports alive by furthering the education and enjoyment of youth who are passionate about the outdoors. During July and the first two weeks of August, Ken Penrod hosts multiple sessions for six to eight boys between the ages of 12 to 17.
