GREAT LAKES & NATURAL RESOURCES CAMP
#1
4-H GREAT LAKES & NATURAL RESOURCES CAMP
AUGUST 1 to 7, 2004

4-H Great Lakes Natural Resources Camp is a great opportunity for teens who
are interested in exploring and learning about Michigan's natural resources,
wildlife and the great outdoors. Campers from all over Michigan will spend
seven days at Camp Chickagami experiencing unique opportunities such as
exploring the dunes, hiking through forests and wading in wetlands, as well
as participating in camp activities like swimming, fishing and boating. Camp
Chickagami is on the shore of Lake Huron between Rogers City and Alpena.

Who Can Attend?
Teens who are aged 13 to 15 are eligible to participate. Participants must
be 13 by July 1, 2004. You do NOT need to be a 4-H member to attend.

Campers entering 8th grade in fall 2004 can be considered for a $2,000 MSU
pre-college program scholarship. The Pre-College Achievement Scholarship
will be applied toward the student's first year at MSU as a degree-seeking
student. For more information on this scholarship opportunity, visit
<[url "http://www.msue.msu.edu/cyf/youth/scholar.html"][#0000ff]http://www.msue.msu.edu/cyf/youth/scholar.html[/#0000ff][/url]>.

How Much Does It Cost?
The camper fee is only $230 a person, but the "real" cost of camp is nearly
$400 per person. The cost includes meals, lodging, T-shirt, program and
activity fees. The Michigan 4-H Foundation and its donors, Michigan Sea
Grant and MSU Extension generously offset approximately 40 percent of the
camp costs per camper! Some additional scholarship funds are also available.

To apply, contact your local MSU Extension office for an application packet.
Enrollment is limited so don't delay! Applications and deposits are due to
your county office by April 30, 2004.
