4-H Summer Camp

Rochelle Wilking, Husser, Brittany

4-H Summer Camping is an opportunity for an experience 4-H'ers grades 4th - 6th will remember for a lifetime. Due to damage sustained by hurricanes and flooding, the camp is still undergoing renovations and repairs which limits the number of campers we will be able to bring. After much thought, the following guidelines were developed for selecting campers to attend. Availability will be on a first come first serve basis.

  1. Complete the interest form by answering all questions. Access the form here.
  2. Families will be contacted if their form was submitted within the first time slots.
  3. Families must secure their slot by submitting their $75 deposit and registration forms by March 29th at 6:00 p.m. or the next interested camper will be contacted.
