Summer Camps & Summer Programs
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. Each 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.
Project Achievement
Georgia 4-H Project Achievement empowers young people with skills for a lifetime. Students choose a project area of interest, research the topic, and write and present a presentation. 4-H'ers develop leadership, creativity, public speaking, record keeping, and other skills. As students become older, a record keeping component that promotes independent thinking, research and implementation is added. Cloverleaf and Junior 4-H'ers (4th-8th graders), begin competition in their school or county and advance to the district level. Senior competitions (9th-12th grade) encourage youth to become more involved in their project areas and advance to the state and national levels.
Judging Teams
4-H'ers in various age groups have the opportunity to learn about specific topics and issues in agriculture and family and consumer sciences. Through research, training sessions, working with a group, and hand on experiences, participants work with a team to evaluate various aspects of their topics. Public speaking, decision making, critical thinking, and problem solving skills are just some of the valuable life skills that students gain from involvement in judging teams.
Livestock Program (judging and exhibiting)
The Georgia 4-H Livestock Program offers extraordinary educational opportunities in programs that challenge 4-H'ers with real-life issues as they learn responsbility through raising, showing and judging livestock. Livestock projects give students the opportunity to practice and aquire new knowledge in the fields of animal science, business, time management and leadership.
