4-H Day Camps offer day long or multi day programs for youth to learn about 4-H project areas and have the experiences of residential camp without sleeping away from home.

Explore Your Interests at 4-H Day Camps!

When it comes to providing your child with a life-changing experience, there’s nothing quite like 4H summer camp. Camp provides the full benefits of a 4H experience coupled with the fun and wonder of camping in the great outdoors. 4-H camps are about making friends, enjoying new experiences, an opportunity to explore their interests, learning cooperation and teamwork skills and participating in fun activities.

The best gift we can give our kids is to empower them with skills that will last for a lifetime, which is why parents have been sending their kids to 4-H summer camps for decades.

4-H was founded on the belief that when kids are empowered to pursue their passions and chart their own courses, their skills grow and take shape, helping them to become true leaders in their lives, careers and communities.

Pennsylvania 4-H offers residential (sleepover) camps, day camps and special interest camps. 4-H camps are conducted by county 4-H programs or by cooperating groups of counties. 

4-H offers several Day Camp options for youth to choose from.  Learn about animals, get creative in the kitchen, build robots, learn to sew, or try your hand at new crafts.  All 4-H day camps offer children the opportunity to get outside, learn something new, make new friends and have an incredible summer.
