Episode 31: 4-H Camps

4-H Camps are great experiences for youth in grades 3-6. Camps are located in various facilities across the State of Indiana. Older 4-H members will serve as Camp Counselors. 4-H Educators and other approved 4-H Volunteers serve as adult chaperones and ensure the programming goes smoothly. In this podcast,

4-H Educators Christie Jacob (Parke County), Liz Beiersdorfer (Dearborn County), and Caren Crum (Clinton County) lead the discussion about their camp experiences.

If you would like to know more about 4-H Camp opportunities in your area, please reach out to the 4-H Extension Educator in your County’s Purdue Extension Office.
