"A Walk With Rudy Mancke Through Lynch's Woods For Camp Conservation"
Photo Scrapbook Page
On November 6, 2004, world renown Naturalist, and South Carolina Legend, Rudy Mancke donated his time, talent and expertise on behalf of Camp Conservation by presenting a special walking tour-lecture-benefit through Lynch's Woods. Two sessions, morning and afternoon, were offered and both were a HUGE success! We present this special page in honor of that memorable, autumn Saturday and Camp Conservation will be forever grateful to Rudy Mancke for his contribution and endorsement!
