Vet Camp Expands


MSU CVM Vet Camp has been well attended since its inaugural session in the summer of 2011; however, due to its increased popularity, Camp age categories were expanded and sessions were added to accommodate 2019’s record registration. This year’s campers— aged 10 to 17— came from as far away as the west coast and represented 13 different states! While visiting the CVM for a one-day camp or a week-long session, campers had the opportunity to experience a variety of hands-on veterinary activities, including canine and equine physical exams, parasitology and critical care procedures.

While all campers received one-on-one instruction in key areas, one camper, 10-year-old Zachary Hoblet from North Carolina had a special visitor: MSU CVM Dean Kent Hoblet (aka Grandpa) during his aquaculture lab experience. For more photos visit Vet Camp Facebook page, click here.
