Missy VanLanduyt
Wisconsin State Park System - Hidden Gems and Waterfalls
Missy VanLanduyt is the Recreation Partnerships Chief with the Park and Recreation Management program at the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. She’s been with the department and parks program for 13 years working with partners, and friends’ groups, coordinating marketing, communications, and outreach for the program, and overseeing property capital development projects.
In her free time, Missy enjoys exploring the outdoors with her family by hiking, biking, camping, swimming, boating, and birdwatching. She also dabbles in all kinds of recreation opportunities on state lands including ATVing, horseback riding, and snowmobiling. Missy has visited all but one of the properties managed by the parks program and is an avid outdoor recreationist. When asked, Missy doesn’t pick just one favorite property but says the best part about the Wisconsin State Park System is finding your favorite part of every property.
Come join us for a great kick-off to summer! Learn more about Wisconsin parks and maybe pick out a hidden waterfall you may want to visit with your family this summer.
Camp Send A Kid
Structured leadership experiences for underprivileged youth
We provide a structured leadership experience to underprivileged youth between the ages of 8 and 12 in an out-of-doors environment that promotes responsibility, values, self-esteem, and self-confidence through activities in outdoor education, teamwork and decision-making. Camp Send a Kid is 100% funded by donors and there is no cost to the campers. It costs approximately $380 to send a child to camp. While at camp, campers experience educational programs with DARE and GREAT officers, DNR, Kicking Bear, time at the waterfront to boat and fish, swim in the pool, and explore nature while building friendships. The opportunity to experience camp creates priceless memories and experiences for the campers
