4-H Summer Camps
CAMP REGISTRATION IS OPEN!
Over 8,000 children ages 9 and up, accompanied by over 1,000 adult and teen leaders, travel annually to Georgia’s unique 4-H centers for a week of camp that will be remembered and cherished for years to come. Every camp offers adventure, friendship and fun, and all seek to develop the camper’s Head, Heart, Hands and Health to make him or her a better person.
Georgia’s 4-H centers — Burton 4-H Center on Tybee Island, Fortson 4-H Center (Hampton, GA), Rock Eagle 4-H Center (Eatonton, GA) and Wahsega 4-H Center (Dahlonega, GA) — and Georgia 4-H at Camp Jekyll open their doors to campers looking for an exciting summer experience. Enthusiastic and well-trained camp counselors, University of Georgia Extension employees, and certified volunteers work together to provide campers with unforgettable memories to last a lifetime!
Cost and Payments
Each camp costs $440 per 4-Her. Camp fees cover lodging, meals, camp t-shirt, 4-H center fees, and transportation for one week. A $75 deposit is required at the time of registration for all camps. The remaining camp balance is due by April 25, 2025. If the balance is not paid in full on time, your child/children) may lose his/her spot(s), be replaced by another 4-Her, and the deposit may be forfeited. However, if Georgia 4-H and UGA determine that the camp cannot be held, all registration deposits and fees will be returned in full.
Camp Scholarships
Scholarships are available and are due no later than March 14, 2025. Recipients are responsible for paying the remainder of the cost of camp not covered by the scholarship. After scholarships are awarded, the remainder of the camp fee must be paid by April 25, 2025.
The $75 camp deposit must be paid to be considered for a camp scholarship. Submitting a camp scholarship request does not guarantee a spot for camp – campers must also complete the camp registration form in order to reserve their spot at camp. Notification of scholarship decisions will be made by March 21, 2025. Find the application HERE.
