4-H Camp provides the opportunity for youth to experience time away from home, meet new people, and learn life skills. The youth attending 4-H Camp participate in activities that focus on teamwork, physical activity, and personal development.

In Magoffin County, due to a low household income, all students qualify for free or reduce lunch. This can make it extremely difficult for families to pay for their children to attend 4-H Camp. As the Magoffin County 4-H program grows, so does the attendance at 4-H Camp. The youth understand that their attendance at camp depends greatly upon the availability of scholarships. These scholarships would not be available if it were not for the financial support of community sponsors. Youth who wish to have sponsorship must fill out a scholarship application. This application is reviewed by the 4-H Council and half and full scholarships are awarded.

4-H Camp is becoming one of the more popular 4-H activities in Magoffin County, with youth asking about camp throughout the year. To keep youth and their parents well-informed, 4-H Camp dates are publicized as soon as they are set. The dates are discussed with youth during club meetings and other 4-H activities. Save-the-date cards are sent to the youth who had attended 4-H Camp in the past as well as those who have checked they are interested in 4-H Camp on their enrollment form.  

In June, Magoffin County had 62 people attend 4-H Camp; 50 campers, 6 JCITs, 2 teens, 3 adults, and 1 agent. With the generous donations of community members and businesses, Magoffin County was able to provide financial support to every camper who applied for assistance. The record breaking camping week was the largest group Magoffin County has ever taken to 4-H Camp.  Without the support of community organizations it would not have been possible.   Many parents, volunteers, and campers have stated that the number would not have been as large if the donations had not been so generous.
