💚 Thank you all: We asked and our 4-H family answered!! We have secured our Male Adult Chaperone for 4-H Camp! 💚

Hey 4-H family!

We are in urgent need of a reliable male chaperone (age 18+) to join our group of 4th, 5th, and 6th graders for Camp Grant Walker Summer Camp at the 4-H Educational Center in Po***ck, Louisiana during the first week of June (6/1-6/4/2026) 4 days/3 nights).

This is a fantastic opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of our young 4-H members while enjoying a fun, memorable week at one of Louisiana’s great 4-H camps! As a chaperone, you’ll help supervise activities, build friendships, and support our youth in a safe, positive environment.

What we provide:
- All accommodations, meals, and camp-related expenses will be fully covered.
- You won’t have any out-of-pocket costs for the camp itself.

Travel will be either with the 4-H group or in your personal vehicle (we’ll coordinate details).

If you’re a past 4-H member, parent, volunteer, or just someone who loves working with kids and wants to give back, please reach out right away! This is a critical need, and we want to fill this spot as quickly as possible.

Message us here, call the office, or reply below with your interest and contact info. We’d be incredibly grateful for your help!

Thank you in advance for stepping up for our 4-H youth! 💚
