Junior Camp
Junior Camp is held twice each year, open to members 9 – 12 years of age and chaperoned by senior members, leaders and volunteers. Winter camp runs from Friday to Sunday with campers sleeping indoors and heading outdoors for fun in the snow. Summer camp is four days long with three nights spent sleeping in tents. Junior Camp provides a chance for members to begin to develop friendships they will continue to cultivate as they age into the provincial activities held for older members. Junior Camp is also a perfect opportunity for the younger members to interact with their senior chaperones and see where their involvement in 4-H can take them in terms of leadership development. Campers enjoy games, crafts and outdoor activities based around camp themes such as animals, bugs, outerspace, First Nations, detectives and more.

“Junior Winter Camp was a lot of fun but tiring because we did so much! We met Charlie and members from other 4-H clubs. We went sliding, snowshoeing, skating and played lots of games. We even learned how to cook bannock bread on the camp fire. Our chaperones were a lot of fun and helped the girls play jokes on the boys and the boys play jokes on the girls on Saturday evening! We even had a slumber party. The theme was Detectives, and we had to help Charlie find her bracelet that someone stole… we followed the cipher clues and the “robber” was Connor Bryson!!!
The food was delicious, and there was even a mini farm at the camp with horses, ponies and goats. We had a great time, learned a lot and can’t wait for the next Junior Camp!”
Tyla Seguin – Richmond 4-H
“Junior Camps was a lot of fun. We were all detectives working a case to find Charlie’s bracelet. At the beginning, no one believed Charlie so she called “911”. It was so funny! We found out later that the “Police Officer” she spoke to was her husband Louis. Charlie gave us cards with different symbols and we had to look for clues around our cabin. Every clue we read we became more excited. It got very LOUD! When we found the robber, he was one of us! He was actually able to keep the secret the whole time! By the end, we were tired but it was a lot of fun and I can’t wait for next year!”
Kianna Keenan – Richmond 4-H

“In winter camp, we had a lot of fun! We played games, made bread, did sledding and skating…but my favourite part was that it was detective theme! I can’t wait to go again!”
