SCOTT CITY -- On Aug. 16, the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks (KDWP) will host a youth waterfowl program from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Scott State Park. The program is designed to teach and improve hunting skills, including duck calling, shotgun shooting, trapping techniques, and waterfowl identification.

Youth must be ages 10 through 16. Sponsors will provide a free lunch for everyone who attends the program. Hats, shirts, and duck calls will be given away, and one lucky youth will win a Remington 870 shotgun from Extreme Fowl of Southwest Kansas.
