2016 4-H Teen Camp to Jekyll Island

We are super excited to announce we will  be heading south to Jekyll Island for our 2016 4-H Teen Camp!!
4-H Teen Camp will be offered this summer for Alleghany, Buncombe, Gaston, and McDowell County 4-Hers the week of June 14-17, 2016 at Jekyll Island, Georgia.  We will have 4 fun-filled days learning about beach ecology, marine biology, Georgia coastal history, team building, leadership skills, and much more.
Activities will include a beach ecology program with saltwater shark/ray fishing, tour of Georgia Sea Turtle Center, trip to Tidelands 4-H Nature Center, evening turtle walk with biologists from the Sea Turtle Center, the Jekyll Island museum, Passport to the Century trolley tour, and fun at the Summer Waves water park.  We will also have some time to enjoy the beach too!
The registration form and tentative schedule is located at the link below.  Registration is on a first come-first served basis.  Alleghany County only has 5 available participant spaces so make sure to get your registration paperwork completed and returned as soon as possible.
Please feel free to share this information with any of your 4-H friends who might be interested.  If you have any questions about the program, please feel free to contact Amy @ amy_lucas@ncsu.edu or 336-372-5597.
