Findings from the PRIDE campaign indicated students in Harlan County were unaware of the effects of pollution and erosion on the environment and ways of correcting the problem. Upon the recommendation of the 4-H and Extension Councils, the one day program with a couple of schools turned into a three day Environmental Camp targeting every 4th grader in Harlan County public and private schools. With the cooperation of the Kentucky Division of Water Quality, Kentucky Division of Forestry, Whitley County Agriculture Agent, Division of Fish, Division of Air Quality, Kentucky Environmental Protection Agency, and Martins Fork Lake, over 400 students, volunteers, presenters, and teachers attended the three day event at Martins Fork Lake. For the past 24 years, the Harlan County 4-H Environmental Camp has been a driving force in our district for counties establishing their own Environmental Camps. Students learned the impact of Martins Fork Lake for tourism, recreation and flood control. They were taught the importance of clean water and air, natural habitats for wildlife, soil conservation practices, farming techniques, forestry practices and a clean community. The students demonstrated the knowledge they gained by offering suggestions of practices they could engage to conserve natural resources and protect the environment. Follow up surveys indicated that 92 percent of students responded positively to improving the environment and using sound environmental practices learned in camp. Several teachers this year were former 4-H Club members who attended Environmental Camp as 4th graders and were excited to bring their classes.  Several teachers commented they had been coming for many years, and that this was the best one they had attended. We also had some new teachers who were eager to attend this year. WYMT television made an appearance and filmed a segment which was used in their evening and nightly news cast. One student discussed she had learned the three things needed for combustion at the Forestry Station and how to prevent forest fires.
