Camping Each summer over 2,000 4-H members participate in residential camps across the state. In addition, counties usually conduct day-long camps during the summer for younger children and for other youth who may not be able to participate in a longer program. They attend workshops on developing web pages, interacting with the media, and presenting themselves in public. They practice their skills during the conference at a reception and banquet.
Participants also learn new games and team building skills while they have fun.
The three-day conference is hosted by Penn State at University Park campus either the third or fourth week of June each year. Four-H Ambassadors participate in a variety of promotional activities in their own counties and elsewhere. They promote the Pennsylvania 4-H Program and Penn State. Participants to the conference are able to apply for Junior and Senior Advisor positions to help with future conference planning. Visit our web page for more information.
