4-H Camp Looking for a few Good Counselors


 The State Camping Team wanted to reach out to each of you in hopes you could continue to spread the word regarding some key positions we are still looking to fill for this summer.  We would ask that you would kindly share this information with former campers, LIT's and others in the 4-H community that may be interested in being a part of an amazing camp experience for our youth.  

Many of you have seen the impact these incredible staff have on our campers firsthand but I'd also like to emphasize the impact this experience creates for these staff as they begin to lay their own foundation for success professionally.  If you know of youth aged 18 and older that are interested in strengthening their skill set in areas like leadership, critical thinking, problem solving, teambuilding and more, then please consider sharing this opportunity with them.  

I have included links to each camp's hiring page as well as some information from the ACA which emphasizes the benefits of working at camp.  If you have specific questions regarding the opportunities below, please don't hesitate to reach out.  

Betsy-Jeff Penn 4-H Educational Center: Male and Female Counselors, Wellness Coordinator, Health Care Coordinator

Eastern 4-H Center: Male and Female Counselors, Rock Wall/High Ropes Instructor, Health Care Coordinator, Wellness Coordinator
We appreciate all that you do to support our programs and we hope that together we can work to not only finalize this year's staff but continue to positively impact those that have graduated from camper by affording them the opportunity to give back in such a rewarding and meaningful way as a counselor.  Please remember to bookmark and save the NC 4-H Camp Resources for Agents google folder where we house information and resources related to camp such as marketing materials, forms, guidance and more.

Remembering Margaret Crites

Image
   It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of 4-H Volunteer Margaret Crites.  Margaret passed away after a brief illness on Friday night at Cape Fear Hospital.  She was preceded in death by her husband, Dr. Bruce DeHart, a brother, and grandparents who raised her.  She is survived by her father Tom Crites, brother Chris, as well as Rusty, The Pirate Jean Lafitte, Flambeaux, and host of incredible friends, coworkers, and folks that she had helped over her many years working in nonprofits.   Margaret's passion was for community and she and co-worker Jessica Drake started volunteering with our 4-H program more than 18 years ago.  They started teaching arts and crafts to our cloverbuds during 4-H Cloverbud Day Camp.  They would plan the most wonderful crafts, such as making musical instruments with paper plates and shower rings that had long ribbon curls that allowed the youth to move, play, and have the best time.  Jessica went on ...

Remembering Bobby Rogers

Image
      One of the first people I met, even before I was officially the 4-H Extension Agent in the County was Bobby Rogers.  He was one of the 4-H Volunteers asked to sit in on my presentation when I interviewed for this job.  I remember him sitting towards the back of the room, near his wife Aggie, who was the 4-H Program Associate.  He was smiling, nodding, and very supportive with his body language which put me at ease in a new and different environment.  I remember after accepting the position he came to me, smiling and said I knew it was going to be you.  I can't wait to see what you do.   Over the years Bobby was more than just a 4-H Volunteer.  Sure he came in and did carpentry workshops with the kids, ran the electric program, and taught countless volunteer workshops.  Before my tenure in the program he was a volunteer with Young Leaders 4-H Club when his children were in 4-H.  He volunteered to take 4-H members to c...
