We are excited to see your children at camp! We are looking forward to a terrific week at Jamestown 4-H Educational Center, and have already begun training our camp counselors. 4-H Camp is a terrific opportunity for youth to learn citizenship, leadership, and life skills through hands-on experiences while making lasting friendships and enjoying a fun-filled week on the James River. Campers enjoy being part of a larger group and participating in campfires, recreation, and classes which may include archery, dance, canoe, kayak, swimming, arts and crafts, outdoor living skills, challenge course, marine science, air rifle, woodworking, and more! If you'd like additional information, we are just a phone call away (804-693-2602).
