NCSU has made the decision to suspend all face-to-face academic and non-academic summer programs, which includes 4-H day camp. This decision was based on the health, safety and well-being of everyone as the top priority and in an effort to help prevent the spread of the deadly COVID-19 virus.


It is our goal and intention to develop, implement, and offer some virtual summer camp opportunities for youth this summer, to still be able to connect youth with camp and the outdoors through the use of technology.
We will communicate those plans and opportunities over the coming weeks.


In summer 2020, Chatham County 4-H is offering five summer camps over six weeks. REGISTRATION FOR ALL SUMMER CAMPS WILL OPEN SUNDAY, MARCH 1 AT 8 a.m. To register, please visit: https://2020ChathamCounty4-HSummerCamps.eventbrite.com
