We are beyond thrilled to announce that we are back to an overnight 4-H Camp and again, attending Rock River Christian Camp this year, in Polo, Illinois. Rock River Christian Camp is a 94 acre, year round retreat and camping center. Youth facilities include nine cabins. 4-H Camp will offer a variety of safely-led activities such as: archery, crate stacking, arts and crafts, hiking, pool, nature study, team building and large group games.
The dates have been set for Sunday, June 11 - Thursday, June 15, 2023. Camp is open to all youth ages 8-14 by June 11. You do not have to be in 4-H to attend.
