Over 100 New Hampshire youth already have shaken off the snow of a long winter, signing up for summer fun at 4-H Camp. UNH 4-H Camp is currently offering four weeks of environmentally-related camps at Barry Conservation Camp, located in Berlin and offered in partnership with N.H. Fish and Game.

Aquatic Adventures! kicks off the summer from July 5-10. Novice anglers will learn the basic skills and equipment needed to start fishing, while campers with more experience will work on improving their fishing skills and explore the finer details of the angling world.

From July 12-17, campers will learn marksmanship, the safe and responsible use of firearms, principles of hunting and archery, conservation ethics, and much more as they explore the 4-H disciplines of black powder, riflery, pistol shooting and archery at Shooting Sports Sampler.

4-H partners with the N.H. Dept. of Fish and Game Hunter Education Program staff and volunteers to teach safe hunting skills and behaviors July 19-July 24 for the Hunter Education and Certification week, open to youth ages 12 through 16.

The final session, Walk on the Wild Side, takes place July 26 - July 31. Campers will experience nature and reunite with the great outdoors as they create a meal from gathered plants, climb a mountain, swim in a pond and more.
