Skills for a life time...
March 2024
As spring approaches, kids across Frederick County and Winchester City are getting ready for 4-H Summer Camp! These amazing young people are thriving and have essential life skills like courage, resilience, and curiosity thanks to 4-H. The unique experiences we offer through our programs and in partnership with 4-H educators and volunteers empower and prepare young people to overcome obstacles and take on challenges with confidence.
I believe in the potential of our county's youth, and I am reaching out to you with a unique opportunity to make a lasting impact on their lives. We are currently gearing up for our annual 4-H Frederick County Summer Camp, a pivotal experience where children have the chance to explore nature, forge lasting friendships, and discover their strengths in a supportive environment.
In a recent study on Career and College Readiness, our 4-H Youth reported:
- 95% are comfortable being a leader
- 96% said 4-H helped them identify things they are good at
- 95% think about how their choices affect others
- 97% get along with those who are different than them
As our kids take to the 4-H camp center - eager and ready to learn - I encourage you to give the gift of confidence (and so much more) with a sponsorship to Frederick County 4-H Summer Camp. Your support will ensure that every child has the opportunity to attend 4-H camp and benefit from these transformative experiences. The 2024 Camp fee is $315 per child, not all youth can afford this amazing opportunity. By making a contribution to Frederick County 4-H, you will be contributing to the development of confident, capable leaders who will shape the future of our community.
If you’re looking to do more, please consider sponsorship opportunities that can provide your business with increased visibility and recognition within our community.
Our youth are leading the way and making our communities better, so let’s show them how much we believe in them by giving them the essential life skills they need to lead.
