Region 15 Enjoys Opportunity at Camp!


I received an email late last week about a trip Region 15 (Iowa, Johnson, Keokuk, and Washington Counties) just returned from. Tricia Stouder from ISU Extension and Outreach in Region 15 sent an e-mail to share with us about the recent trip that their group made out to the Iowa 4-H Center.

66 kids, 2 adults, and one staff member were able to make a trip to the Iowa 4-H Center for camp during the month of June. The kids stayed busy with many activities including crafts and learning campfire songs. We can tell by the pictures that this group stayed very busy during their visit.

Region 15 campers were able to make the trip to camp thanks to a transportation grant that they received from the Iowa 4-H Foundation. The Iowa 4-H Foundation is happy to provide funding opportunities, such as this, for Iowa 4-H’ers.

We would like to thank Tricia for sending us pictures of their trip for us to share. We are very happy to see that they enjoyed their stay at the Iowa 4-H Center!
