Regional 4-H Camps

Thriving close to home — connecting youth across parishes in your area.

Regional 4-H Camps give youth the same fun, skill-building experiences of our statewide camps, but in a closer-to-home setting. Youth meet peers from nearby parishes, discover their sparks, and engage in activities designed around local opportunities and resources.

What Makes Regional Camps Special?

  • Local Connection: Meet youth from your area and form lasting friendships
  • Tailored Experiences: Activities reflect regional culture, environment, and needs
  • Leadership in Action: Teens often serve as junior counselors, learning responsibility and mentorship
  • Convenience: Shorter travel for families, while still delivering the full 4-H camp impact

Outdoor & Overnight Camps

Unplug, explore nature, and build independence and friendships through hands-on adventure.
