Summer Camp for the WHOLE Family at Spring Family Weekend!!!

So though there's still some ice on our February lake...

The sunshine already has us dreaming of spring.

And dreaming of Spring Family Weekend!!!

We always get the same comment from folks who aren't camper age (parents! younger siblings! almost anyone!): "But I want to go to 4-H Camp too!"

Well, lucky them! (and you! and everyone!) 
Cause we've got Summer Camp for the whole family with Spring Family Weekend.

Registration NOW open!

Families stay together in our cabins, eat meals in our Dining Hall, and get to enjoy a weekend filled with our Summer Camp activities. Most importantly it's a great way to spend some quality time together outdoors, relaxing around the lake, playing in the woods, and soaking up all our 108-acre-70-year-old facility has to offer.

The weekend runs from 10am Saturday to 11am on Sunday, with lunch, dinner, and breakfast provided. (If you would like to stay an extra evening on site, an early-arrival option for Friday night is available. Staff will be on hand to greet early-arrival families, but programming for the weekend does not begin until 10am on Saturday.)

More details and online registration are available here. The weekend is $60 per participant, and includes food, lodging and all activities. Children two and under attend free. 

Please reach out to us at the Camp Office (973-948-3550) with any and all questions, and we'll hope to see you in May!

Leadership Weekend 2020!

Leadership Weekend!

We ended with a group photo...

But we started...

With some...

Get-to-know-ya-games!

Because even though...

Most of our Leadership Weekend participants...

Have been coming to 4-H Camp...

For years... 

Many had never been here...

Together...

At the same time...

Before!

So, everyone...

Getting to know...

A bunch of other folks...

Who love 4-H Camp...

Just as much...

As they do...

Was certainly...

First on the to-do list.

So it was get-to-know-ya cooking!

Get-to-know-ya...

Table setting!

Get-to-know-ya-eating!

And get-to-know-ya-cleaning!

And then more get-to-know-ya-games!

And even though...

It was February...

We lucked out...

With some good...

Winter sunshine...

To enjoy some time outdoors...

At our shared...

Home away from home.

And we took advantage...

Of that winter sunshine...

To sneak in some...

Junior Counselor training!

Cause the weekend wasn't all fun and games!

It was also an introduction...

To the demands...

And rigors...

Of the Junior Counselor role at 4-H Camp!

Which we teach via fun and games.

When the winter sunshine went away...

(Leaving us with just winter out there...)

We moved the training indoors...

Where our second year Junior Counselors...

Shared...

Some of their...

Experience...

And knowledge...

As well as some...

Tips...

Some tricks...

And some advice...

For Junior Counselor success.

(Also delivered...

In fun...

And game...

Form.)

And then!

So quickly!

We were already...

At...

The end of the weekend!

However,

Like any time spent at 4-H Camp...

We cram so much...

Goodness into...

The minutes...

Hours...

And days here...

That all the benefits...

From getting this group together...

For a short winter weekend...

Are incalculable!

Because this group...

Of CIT graduates...

Campers emeritus...

And 4-H Camp devotees...

Needed to spend...

Some quality Camp time,

All here together, because they are the...

Exact folks...

Who will go on...

To support...

And define...

Our 4-H Camp program...

Not just for...

Summer 2020...

But for...

Summer 2021...

Summer 2022...

And beyond.
