Summer Programs
2024 Summer Programs
Welcome to the 4-H Summer Programs Page!
All participants must be enrolled in 4-H Online as a 4-H member in order to participate in these camps. That is where participants will complete their summer program health form and agreements. 4-H membership is FREE but is now required to participate in programs. To complete this process, visit the Enroll tab and follow the directions.
Not interested in joining a 4-H club? That's fine. Just select "Alamance Members At Large" as your club selection.
Are you a member of 4-H in another county? Contact sarah_maddry@ncsu.edu to let us know and we will walk you through the process of adding Alamance County to your list of 4-H counties on 4-H Online.
Registration for all camps are done on 4-H Online. All registrations are now open. Each camp has a different registration deadline. See below for specific deadlines.*
Participation in all programs will be on a first come first serve basis. A $10 non-refundable deposit is required upon registration. Remaining balances are due by June 3, 2024. Once registration has filled, a waiting list will be created. Youth will be pulled from the waiting list if a spot becomes available. If a deposit is not received, participation is not guaranteed. Deposits will be refunded only if your child does not make it off the waiting list. No refunds will be given within 10 days of the program.
*Residential camping at the Eastern 4-H Center registration opens November 27, 2023 and remain open until spots are filled.
