Collapse ▲5 Reasons YOU (Your Child)
Should ATTEND 4-H Camp!
Why should I send my child to 4-H Camp? What if they aren’t ready? What if they are homesick? What if, What if, What if? Instead, ask these questions. What if my child has the time of their life? What if my child gains self-confidence? What if my child has amazing experiences? What if my child learns to be their best self? Well these “what if’s” and more are exactly why you should consider sending your child to 4-H camp!
Let’s count down the top 5 reasons to attend 4-H camp!
5. No Electronics for a Week – As we know youth spend excessive amounts of time with their beloved electronic devices. At 4-H camp, your child will be participating in our outdoor programs sans the electronics! They will learn how much fun they can have outdoors and with others!
4. Teamwork Makes the Dream Work! – Your child will learn valuable lessons in teamwork during the week while living with and participating in activities with other youth from all over NC! Winning the cleanest cabin (or at least trying), making it through the team challenge course, learning how to work with others who aren’t like you are just a few ways your child will grow!
3. Storytelling 101 – Your child will have wonderful stories to tell – stories of triumph, stories of troubles, and always stories of accomplishment, laughter, and new friends!
2. Trying something NEW – From new songs, swimming, canoeing, rock wall climbing and so much more, your child will have a new experience at 4-H camp!
1. Independence/Self-Confidence – As a 4-H camper, youth will gain skills as they traverse through the 4-H camp week. During this week they gain that “Can Do” attitude that we want to instill in our young people by overcoming obstacles without the watchful eye of their parents.
Now that you have read our top 5 reasons to go to 4-H camp, check out the FAQ section to get signed up. Still have a few more questions? See contact information below!
