Summer Overnight Camps

CAMP spelled with images of youth participating in summer camp activities

Georgia 4-H offers five-day, four-night summer camps for 4-H’ers of all ages. These camps take place at one of the 4-H Centers in Georgia and provide many fun and exciting activities. Starting in 7th grade, 4-H’ers must be deemed active in order to attend camp. Each camp has a different experience for an entire week of adventures and new opportunities from zip lines and canoeing to trips to Stone Mountain and the beach.

Georgia's 4-H summer camping program, administered through the county offices of UGA Cooperative Extension, offers a 4-H summer camping experience unparalleled in the nation. Every camp offers great adventure, friendship, and fun. If you love an outdoor adventure with lots of swimming, archery, hiking, and hands-on learning about nature then 4-H Camp is for you.

Summer 2026 Camp Registration information will appear in this space at the end of 2025. All 4th-6th grade youth can register for Cloverleaf Camp when it opens. For those in 7th-12th grade, you must email ForsythCounty4H@uga.edu to confirm your child is eligible and to receive the private registration link.

There are limited, partial scholarships available to assist youth in attending summer camp. If you would like more information or the application, please e-mail ForsythCounty4H@uga.edu.
