Camp Reflections

As I sit her this morning thinking about camp(and waiting on my second load of laundry) I am sure many campers are still asleep. Camp 2012 had many high notes and a few low notes but overall was great!!  Our campers were the best!  They toughed out the weather (hot and cold in one week!!) and showed outstanding 4-H spirit!  During the week I saw campers using the 4 H's:  their HEAD to learn new things and make good choices; their HEART to make new friends and care for those who needed extra support,  their HANDS to help others and keep our center clean and  their HEALTH  by keeping hydrated and having a positive attitude.  


Many campers reached new goals, 

learned new skills

and made new friends. 

I am sure they have many stories to tell and many fun memories.  I know that I enjoyed my week at camp and feel so proud that we have such outstanding youth in both Orange and Madison county!  


Hope to see you all next year at camp!! (2013 camp should be one of the following weeks:  June 9-13, 16-20, or 23-27.  We will know for sure in September!)
