Special programs such as water Olympics, carnivals, and campfires promote teamwork and the community spirit of 4-H.Through one week summer sessions, campers will:
- Have a greater appreciation for the environment and their surroundings
- Develop self-esteem, self-worth, communication, and group participation skills through educational programs of their choice
-
Have opportunities to develop and exhibit individual and group leadership skills
- Be encouraged to become involved in local 4-H programs
- Have fun, educational, recreational, and social experiences in a group setting away from home
Caring, trained staff from diverse backgrounds help campers develop a sense of acceptance, self-worth, and security through group living and activities. Campers enjoy delicious wholesome meals served cafeteria style. A salad bar is available for lunch and dinner, and accommodations are available for special dietary needs.
