Due to the overwhelming registration response to this year’s 4-H Camp, we have been working with 4-H Camp Clifton to utilize the Nature Center Cabin as a girl’s cabin for 2026. This will allow us to convert all the current registered day campers to overnight campers and allow 6 more to register for camp in the girls’ cabins.

If you have been waiting to sign up for 4-H camp because you heard it was full and only day camp spots left, you now can register to go to 4-H camp and stay overnight. We have 6 bunks available for the girls’ cabins and 3 bunks available for the boys’ cabins.
To register for 4-H Camp, go to https://go.osu.edu/2026clarkco4hcamperregistration

For those that have registered for 4-H camp, confirmation e-mails will be going out later today or tomorrow at the latest with your workshop and special day signups and payment information.
