Studies have proven that children involved in educational outside of school are more likely to become successful members of society. The 4-H Cloverbud Program is a way to reach kids at a younger age to get them involved in the 4-H Program. This program serves as a stepping stone to introduce youth to all the various 4-H programs and activities. In Bracken County, our Cloverbud program has been confined to afterschool activities and short summer day camps. In an effort to engage younger youth in the 4-H Camping program, we took 12 campers, 2 adults, and 1 teen to Cloverbud Overnight Camp at North Central 4-H Camp. . The focus of the camp is to engage in cooperative, non-competitive learning experience. 4-H Cloverbud members participate in learning activities that promote self-confidence, healthy lifestyles, social skills, and just plain having fun. Majority of the youth who attend 4-H Cloverbud Camp have never stayed overnight away from a parent. This can be a major challenge for many of the youth while at camp and the adult and teen leaders do a tremendous job of keeping youth engaged and retaining their campers. In addition, Cloverbud Camp is a great way to introduce younger youth and their parents to 4-H Camp as well as introducing them to 4-H opportunities offered across the state. Upon returning from camp, it was highly spoken of among the campers! Most cannot wait to go back next year. The plan is for Bracken County to slowly increase participation in this unique experience. Some of the older kids that attended said that by going to Cloverbud Camp it helped them learn about camp so they are ready when they go back as older 4-Hers.
