BLANCHARDVILLE - Despite the cold weather for an August day, 16 Green County 4-H youth and one youth volunteer attended the second annual All-Day 4-H Camp at Yellowstone Lake Aug. 21. The youth were also joined by Green County 4-H Youth Counselor, Jessica Schieldt, Parent Volunteers, Amy Thoman, Teena Fey, Eric Fey and 4-H Youth Development Agent, Alissa Grenawalt also attended.
Youth in attendance from Green County were: Kaitlyn Fey, Kyle Priebe, Browntown Busy Beavers 4-H; Joe Crubaugh, Kelsi Babler, Casey Kehoe, Dana Kehoe, Young Americans 4-H; Jozey and Jazmyn Thoman, Morgan Godfrey, Dougherty Creek 4-H; Lukas Tresemer, Morgan Tresemer and Zoe Tresemer, Spring Grove Honest Workers 4-H; Rachael Schieldt, Michael Schieldt, Lauren Raskovic, Katie Raskovic, New Glarus 4-H. The group was joined by 4-H youth and adults from Lafayette and Iowa counties.
Participants played games to get to know other youth, went on a scavenger hunt discovering animals and other species of nature, participated in fun activities and learned how to work as a team to accomplish specific goals.
Through this program, youth were able to meet other 4-H members from around the county and surrounding counties, get a taste of 4-H camp, get active and exercise, have a positive 4-H experience in a local environment, discover Yellowstone Lake State Park.
With the great response of the day camp, Green, Iowa and Lafayette Counties decided to make it an annual event. Overnight 4-H camp took place in June; dates for next year's overnight camp are June 10-12 in Wisconsin Dells at Camp Upham Woods.
