4-H Summer Camp

Author: Rebecca Hayes

Planning Unit: Carter County CES

Major Program: Camping

Plan of Work: Leadership Development in Adults and Youth

Outcome: Intermediate Outcome

Many 4-Hers went to 4-H Summer camp and learned something new/tried something for the first time. One 4-Her came up to Rebecca Hayes and talked about her time in the High Ropes class. She has taken high ropes just about every year she has gone to camp (about 5 years). Every year she would climb the rock wall and each year get closer to the top but she never made it to the top platform to go down the zip line. This year, she made it to the top and finally got to zip down the line. She was so ecstatic and excited to have reached a goal she set for herself a few years prior.
