🚨 URGENT NEED – MALE CAMP LEADERSHIP NEEDED 🚨

Jefferson County 4-H Camp is in need of ADULT MALE CABIN LEADERS and MALE TEEN LEADERS (ages 16–17) for camp June 8–12, 2026.

At this time, we do NOT meet the required camper-to-adult ratio for male cabins. Unfortunately, if we cannot secure additional leadership, approximately 22 male campers may have to stay home. We would hate to cancel their registrations and deny them this incredible camp experience.

🏕 Camp Dates: June 8–12, 2026
📍 Jefferson County 4-H Camp
👨 Adult Male Cabin Leaders Needed (age 18+)
👦 Male Teen Leaders Needed (ages 16–17)

This is your chance to make a difference, mentor youth, build leadership, and help create unforgettable memories for these young men.
