How to register:
There are four steps to the online camper registration process!
Step 1.
Pay your camp pre-registration fee to reserve a spot! $50/camper will hold a bed while you fill out the required paperwork for camp. This process will begin on March 30th at 9:00 AM, payment will be accepted on our square site and in person at the extension office. We will immediately begin a waitlist once all spots have been filled.
Franklin County 4-H is a Yes Card vendor and families can utilize their youth’s Yes Card for the deposit or entire camp payment, just checkout like you would using a debit card!
At checkout on the square site you will need to put your campers name, age, and an email address.
Step 2.
Once the Franklin County Extension Office receives the deposit for your camper. You will receive an email with the link to the virtual camp application. Please note it could take up to 24 business hours to receive this email. Paper applications can also be picked up at the extension office.

Volunteers!
Volunteers are needed, but spots are limited! For Franklin County to have a successful camp week for our youth, we depend on our volunteers! Volunteers ages 16 and up are needed to serve as camp counselors. Parents, grandparents, aunts or uncles, older brothers or sisters make great adult and teen counselors! Adults and teens who volunteer to attend camp will be able to attend for FREE. All volunteers must apply and pass a background check. Please note, if you submit a counselor application, this will not guarantee you will have a space. You will be contacted by April 15th IF you are selected to attend.
