Yes, indeed, your summer camp adventure can truly start in the middle of November, because registration for Summer 2025 at the New Jersey 4-H Camp is now OPEN!
Sign up before the end of the year (12/31/24) to take advantage of our Polar Bear Early Registration for you first pick on sessions, classes, and the lowest rate we offer!
And don't wait until next summer to come visit - join us in just three weeks for our WINTER GATHERING on the afternoon of Saturday, December 7th!
With the opening of 2025 Registration, we're one step closer to when we get to:
Get ready to sign-up for Summer '25 in just one week! (Registration opens on 11/15 for both our classic overnight Camp program and 4-H Camp at Rutgers Gardens.)
Check out all the sessions, themes, and classes on our website.
Our Polar Bear Early-Registration extends through until the end of the year, so plan to sign up before the New Year for the lowest rates we offer.
(Also, join our Lantern Family program by referring a brand-new camper. This 4-H Camp video can help!)
But that's not all - we are also ONE MONTH away from our Winter Gathering.
The leaves won't be as bright as pictured above, but spirits WILL BE bright as the Camp Family gets together for a little afternoon December reunion.
It's a great chance to get-to-gather, catch up with some Camp friends, and enjoy a winter afternoon at your summer camp home.
Please help us SPREAD THE WORD and consider making a contribution.
In Summer 2024, The New Jersey 4-H Camp gave out over $62,000 in campership support to 88 campers for sessions at overnight camp in Stokes Forest and 4-H Camp at Rutgers Gardens. The funds raised in last year's 4-H Campfire Council Campership Campaign went a long way to making these 88 summer camp experiences possible.
This year, all donations will go an EVEN LONGER WAY, because a generous donor has pledged to match our entire campaign!
Yes, dollar for dollar, every gift the Campfire Council received during this campaign will be DOUBLED.
Help us get the word out, so that when the campaign ends at Winter Gathering (12/7), we can all celebrate the Campfire Council and 4-H Camp Community helping support a whole lot of campers(x2) this summer.
Yes, in another sure sign that we are indeed spending autumn moving toward summer, applications for Summer Staff are now open and available!
If you're interested, check-out our Pre-Application Guide for all the details that go into the extraordinary task of being a 4-H Camp Counselor.
To celebrate, we'd like to share TWO MORE brand-new 4-H Camp videos.
We were lucky enough to have our counselors, Yosuf and Ace, who both discovered 4-H Camp through Rutgers University, discuss what makes the camp counselor experience so meaningful to them.
Hear about it from Yosuf:
And Ace!:
