2024 4-H Summer Fun

(Updated: June 20, 2024, 6:28 a.m.)

It's time for Summer!

Stokes County 4-H is excited for our summer line-up! Please read over everything carefully and pay attention to all details. All youth and families will be required to read over the Stokes County 4-H Summer Fun Guidebook.

We have a full list of opportunities for youth ages 5-18 to participate in, such as Cloverbud Camp, Fiber Fun, 4-H STEM Camp, Global Gourmet, Stokes County Government Camp, and Life Skills.
Registration for the 2024 Stokes County 4-H Summer Fun program will begin May 1st! All youth must be a 4-H member to participate, so NOW is the time to make sure your 4-HOnline profile is up to date and submitted BEFORE May 1st. We encourage you to complete this process before registration opens, so you can go into the system and register for camps right away as they become available. Visit 4HOnline.com to update your child’s profile, or to create a profile if you’re new.

Youth will only be guaranteed a spot in a camp once they have paid in full! Families have 3 business days to make their payments. For example, if payments are being mailed, they must be postmarked within 3 business days of your registration date (if I submit my child's registration on May 3rd, my payment must be postmarked by May 6th, or I must bring payment to the office by May 6th). You may mail in cash or check to Stokes County 4-H PO Box 460, Danbury, NC 27016, or bring it by the office, 700 N Main Street, Danbury, NC 27016 (located in the old Danbury School, behind River Street). Please make checks payable to Stokes County 4-H.


Ages for camps are based on the child's age as of January 1st of the current year.

We are looking forward to another awesome summer for Stokes County 4-H Summer Fun!
