What is a Fish Camp Namesake?
Fish Camp is divided into multiple sessions and camps. Each camp is named after someone who has contributed to Texas A&M in a positive way. Fish Camp receives several hundred nominations for potential Namesakes every year. Being selected as a Fish Camp Namesake is considered an honor because Namesakes have the opportunity to interact with and impact 2 chairpersons, 24 counselors, and around 150 freshmen in their camp.
