Get Into Camp Camp is an opportunity to make new friends, learn and have fun in a safe environment. For evening fun, there’s a pool party and singing around the campfire. Campers select their own classes onsite (archery, kayaking, air rifle, arts/crafts, and much more).

Who’s Coming to Camp? Powhatan, Goochland and Hanover counties camp as one big group, giving campers the chance to make friends beyond county lines. Trained teen counselors learn, supervise, teach and have fun. Trained adult volunteers give their time and talent to insure your child has a fun and safe adventure. The residential camp staff includes instructors, medical personnel, lifeguards, maintenance, food service, office support, program coordinator and a director. 4-H Extension Agents from all three counties join the fun!

Before You Decide 4-H Camp is a busy, exciting week away from home. If your child has not spent several nights away from you or home, Camp may not be the place to start.

Also, camp is a communal living situation, consider your child’s need for privacy, ability to share and responsibility of

his/her own possessions.

Do not send your children if they do not want to attend camp.
