Sending your son or daughter to sleep away camp for the summer is a major decision. Most of the time, this is a child’s first experience away from home without parents. What if we said that instead of going away for the whole summer, children can get the same experience in just a week? Currituck County 4-H has a great opportunity for you! County 4-H staff has organized and will accompany youth ages 8-12 years old to Eastern 4-H Center in Columbia, NC during the week of June 18-23, 2023.
Children can try canoeing, archery, swimming, and more! Sleep away camp is the perfect place for your child to become more independent and confident in themselves. In just one short week, you will notice a difference in your child and they will make tons of memories to last a lifetime!
Campers sleep in modern cabins with multiple indoor showers and restroom facilities. Each cabin houses up to 22 participants with at least 2 counselors available to provide constant, safe supervision. Campers bring their own sleeping bags or bed linens, as well as clothing and toiletries. The Eastern 4-H Center provides all the specialized equipment for camp activities.
Nutritious, balanced meals are served family-style, 3 times a day. Snacks and juice are served mid-mornings and evenings. The camp store is also open in the afternoons for ice cream, soft drinks, snacks and souvenirs. We guarantee your child will have an unforgettable experience!
The cost for camp is $525.00 which includes transportation, meals, lodging, insurance, camp t-shirt, and $15 camp store money. Payment plans are available and we may also have some scholarship money available for qualifying families. Space is limited so please do not hesitate calling and requesting your spot.
At this time we have 3 spots for girls remaining. We can request additional spots and/or work to find spots in other 4-H camp weeks so if you are interested please don’t hesitate to call. NC Cooperative Extension – Currituck Center at 252-232 – 2262.
If you need accommodations for persons with disabilities, please contact Stephanie Minton at stephanie_minton@ncsu.edu or by calling 252-232-2261 no later than 21 days before the event.
