Vortex Funds Youth Scholarship Plus Gear for Outdoor Adventure Camps
MISSOULA, Mont. – [May 20, 2025]— Vortex has renewed its dedication to fostering the next generation of conservation advocates by continuing the Vortex Outdoor Adventure Camps Fund with the Boone and Crockett Club for 2025. Designed to support youth participation in Boone and Crockett’s Conservation Education programs at the Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Ranch, this initiative reinforces Vortex’s role as a Silver sponsor alongside other leading organizations. These sponsorships are integral to assisting with the Club’s overall mission to promote the conservation and management of wildlife, especially big game and its habitat, to preserve and encourage hunting, and to maintain the highest ethical standards of fair chase and sportsmanship in North America.
“We greatly appreciate Vortex’s renewed support that will empower the next generation to become stewards of wildlife and conservation,” said Tony Schoonen, Chief Executive Officer of the Boone and Crockett Club. “With their scholarships and gear contributions, we’re able to inspire youth to engage with conservation efforts, fostering a shared commitment for the future of our wildlife and wild places.”
Since its founding by Theodore Roosevelt in 1887 the Boone and Crockett Club and its members led the development of policies that protected federal public lands, developed the frameworks of modern game laws, funded conservation efforts, and reinforced the vision of sustainable use of our natural resources. Throughout its history, these accomplishments have been supported through strategic partnerships with state and federal agencies, policy makers, other non-governmental hunter-conservationist organizations, universities, and business and industry. The Boone and Crockett Club’s Trailblazers in Conservation partnership program aims to help today’s hunting community rise to the challenges of a changing world. Becoming a Trailblazer in Conservation shows the commitment from industry partners and others to support the mutual interests of scientific wildlife management, hunter ethics, and conservation advocacy.
“We’re incredibly proud to continue our support for the important work done by Boone and Crockett through their Outdoor Adventure Camps,” said Vortex Brand Manager Sawyer Briel. “Ensuring future generations have access to everything the outdoors have to offer is more important than ever – these programs help set up attendees for a life lived outside, and we will continue to do whatever we can to help them grow.”
