What a super fun week at 4-H Day Camp! 20 kids from Montgomery County had the opportunity to travel by school bus to Millstone 4-H Camp each day where they participated in daily activities (i.e. canoeing, rock climbing, giant swing, riflery, archery, crafts, etc).
What a great way to end our 4-H Summer program!
A huge thank you to all of the individual donors who help fund this summer program, the Montgomery Fund grant for helping fund this program, Montgomery County Schools for providing our bus, to Ms. Beverly for driving for us, to all of the camp staff and to the parents for trusting us with your children!
We are looking forward to next summer already! 🍀
