It is your week at the Windham Tolland 4-H Camp. You can have lots of fun, do and learn many things and meet new friends.

Before you get TOO excited there are some things you and your parents have to do to get you ready for camp. You and your parents have to pick one of the programs.

If you have never been to camp before you may want to try the Clover Program. as an introduction to camp life.

If you are ready for a full week of camp life chose either the Overnight or the Day Camp. When you look at the calendars for the programs, each activity has a link so you can find what it is you want to do for that week of camp. Here you will find a day schedule of events so you will know how your day will go. This schedule if for resident campers, but also applies to day campers from 8 AM until 5 PM.

Now its time to get ready for camp. Here is a list of things to bring for the day campers or for the overnight campers. Its a long list but you can print this out on your computer.

Every camp has rules for you to follow for your health and safety. Here are some of the rules you should know so that you do not bring anything to camp that is not permitted.

Food is very plentiful and you should have plenty to eat while you are at the camp. If you are taking medication be sure to download the special medications form with your papers for registration, BUT don't bring any medication to camp that is not precribed by your doctor.

Sometimes campers get lonely while at camp. We encourage you to write to home and ask your parents and family to send mail to you, but you can only use the phone for emergencies. No visitors are allowed during the week. Your WHOLE family is encouraged to come to the Closing Ceremonies on Friday night. Day campers and their families are encouraged to stay for these ceremonies as well.

Now that you're all excited about camp, there are some things you need to do and to help your parents or guardians do. You need to register at the camp. You will need all the forms which are on the main page. You can help fill those in, right here on the computer, then print them out.

When you are ready, these are the directions for getting to and for leaving camp. Then you should be ready to register for camp.
