Summer 4-H Camp Registration Deadline – May 17

Beginner Camp at Canter’s Cave 4-H Camp kicks off our summer camping season and is only 3 weeks away!  “4-H Camp is Fun & Games” Beginner Camp is May 31 – June 3 for members just completing grades 3rd-5th. We have tons of fun planned for this camp as we take traditional board games to the outdoors and give them a Canter’s Cave twist.  Invite a friend and come ready to play!

Members finishing grades 6th-8th are invited to attend “Survivor:  Canter’s Cave” from June 6 – 9.  Come see which Canter’s Cave myth becomes legend as tribes compete in activities throughout camp.  Will your tribe win bragging rights?  We will see.

Teen Camp will be June 14 – 17 and is always a great time.  High ropes, cliff rappelling, and a canoe trip down Salt Creek are just a few of the adventures you’ll take at Teen Camp.  Take a break from the summer rush and hang out with old friends at camp!

Finally, Cloverbud Overnighter for Cloverbuds and their parent or caregiver will be Friday, June 21 through Saturday, June 22.  Parents and Cloverbuds will experience many of the fun camp activities that our older campers participate in like hiking, boating, archery, campfire and more!  Join us for a taste of what Canter’s Cave 4-H Camp has to offer!
