Youth who attend 4-H Camp acquire vital leadership skills, learn responsibility and gain social interaction skills as well as gaining an understanding of nature and our environment. The community supports the program monetarily by providing donations for camp scholarships. Twelve local businesses and individuals donated $2,484 which allowed eleven youth to attend 4-H Camp. Their experiences and memories made at camp would not have been possible without the generosity of the community.
