Hey Clay County 4-H families! 💚

If your kids missed out on camp because it filled up so fast, there’s good news—a second session of 4-H Camp Bobwhite (June 9–11) has officially been opened! 🎉

This is such a great opportunity, especially since spots went so quickly the first time. Camp is seriously one of the best experiences for kids—fun, friendships, confidence, all of it.

Natalie is already signed up for the second session, and we’d LOVE to see more Clay County kids there with her!

If you’ve been on the fence or missed the first round, now’s your chance—go grab those spots before they fill up again! 🤠🌵

Because 4-H Camp filled up so quickly, we’re excited to announce that we’ve opened a second session: June 9–11!

It’s the same great location, program, food, and cost—just another chance to join the fun. Registration is now open in 4-H Online under “Camp Bobwhite” for June 9–11.

Spots won’t last long, so be sure to sign up soon!
