4-H Day Camps Benton 2024 SAUK RAPIDS

4-H STEM Day Camps. Exciting things are planned for K-6!! Youth should be ready to discover three different exciting topics this summer as they become investigators and detectives, doing experiments, projects, crafts and some guaranteed messy fun, while making new friends and building relationships with our camp counselors and staff.

The three science discovery topics/themes for this year include:

●       Animals on the Farm (June 6) How many farm animals have you met up close in person? Have you held or touched different farm animals? Do you know the types of foods the different animals provide? The 4-H Camp Counselors are super excited to bring their animals for you to meet and learn about at this day camp. We plan to have a cow, sheep, goat, llama, chicken and a rabbit. You will find out how to raise these animals, show them at the county fair and find out interesting things you may never have known about them. We will also learn about zoonotic, as you become a disease detective.

●       Hawaiian Color Explosion (June 13) Aloha! Have you been to a Luau? Eaten fruit kabobs? Do you know how many active volcanoes are in the United States or how the Hawaiian Islands were formed? Come to this tropical camp, where you will make flower leis, eat fruit kabobs, listen to Hawaiian music, make tiki totem poles, explore seashells, create lanterns and much more. You will learn how volcanoes erupt. You will even experiment with different types of volcanic colorful explosions and learn how to do them at home.

●       Engineering/Construction Exploration (June 20) Have you had any experience building? Have you made a catapult to send objects flying? Have you tested the strength of a bridge? At this camp, you will imagine, plan, build, test and modify designs to make them work better. You will build different bridges and test their strength, design different tracks to create a ski jump and construct several different types of catapults to see which will send objects flying the furthest. Come with your engineering thinking hat on to investigate the best way make your machine function the best.
