Jefferson County 4-H to host summer day camps

Jefferson County 4-H will be sponsoring two separate day-long camps at the Jefferson County Fairgrounds in July.

?Fun in the Sun? camp for kindergartners to third-graders will be 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. July 11. Camp participants will play water games, make buggy crafts, learn about bugs and water, and enjoy additional outdoor activities.

Children who have completed fifth through seventh grade may register for ?Mystery Festival? camp, scheduled 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. July 25. Campers will follow a series of clues to find out ?who done it? in this mysterious camp.

Registration for either class costs $5 per child, and campers are asked to bring a sack lunch. Registration forms and flyers are available at the Jefferson County ISU Extension Office.

Registration and fees for both classes are due in the extension office by July 1. Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis, and space is limited to 20 children.
