Give your child the opportunity of a lifetime at the Great NW 4-H Camp at Rock Springs. This camp is more than just a vacation. This is a place for your child to learn self-confidence, cooperating with others, and life beyond one’s own world. Attending summer camp is also a time for experiencing nature and the outdoors, learning important life skills, and making new friends.

“Through 4-H, I have been able to meet a lot of new people and make friends from all over Kansas.” exclaimed camp counselor, Katelyn, age 17.

While at Rock Springs, your child can participate in a wide variety of scheduled activities including horseback riding and hiking scenic trails, swimming in an Olympic-sized pool, canoeing, archery, basketball, volleyball, and Frisbee golf.

Youth will also participate in educational workshops led by Extension Professionals ranging from Outdoor Cookery to Craft Time. “Kaley loves the wide variety of crafts. Her favorite craft was making bracelets and decorating t-shirts.” stated 4-H mom, Monica.

The outcome of attending The Great NW Camp is for all these little life lessons to contribute in a positive and significant way that enhances the child's adjustment into their adult years.
