We understand that the cost of camp can be
overwhelming for some. All registered campers
will have the opportunity to fundraise their way
to camp. 4-H’ers will have the chance to sell
Krispy Kreme certificates and participate in the
third annual mattress fundraiser to help offset the
cost of camp. Each camper will receive a
fundraising packet at the time of sign-up! While it
may not seem like much, each fundraisers can
add up fast! For example: each Krispy Kreme
certificate sold will raise $4. Let’s do a little
math…Cost of camp after $85 deposit = $240. $4
earnings for each certificate sold ÷ $240 = 60
certificates. Just by selling 10 certificates you can
save $40!
Refunds will only be given for the following rea-
sons: 1) Medical documentation due to illness/
injury, or 2) death in immediate family. Requests
must be in writing. No refunds will be given for “no
shows” or early departure from camp due to
homesickness, discipline, etc. No refunds will be
made until after the end of the 4-H camping season.
