4-H Camp
The 2009 Wake County 4-H Sleep-Away Summer Camp Program was a tremendous success!
A total of 159 youth ages 8-14 had a great time while gaining interpersonal life skills, ecological knowledge and community awareness by learning through doing. All activities were under the continual supervision of highly trained staff at the Betsy-Jeff Penn 4-H Educational Center in Reidsville, N.C.
