Rappahannock Neva SUIT Intern
For more than 30 Rappahannock County children, summer ended with a week of fun at the Northern Virginia 4-H Center, where they attended overnight camp the week of Aug. 10 to 14. A total of about 200 youngsters, representing Rappahannock, Madison and Orange counties spent the week learning and having fun.
In the morning the campers, who ranged in age from nine to 12, went to activity classes. A variety of subjects was offered, and all were able to find activities which suited their interests. Campers learned and practiced water sports, ceramics, computers, nature studies, drama, outpost camping, archery, shooting sports, horsemanship and aerobics.
After lunch, the campers participated in a group workshop. On the first day there was a parade, so the children spent the afternoon building floats. Another day, the 4-H Center chartered buses and took the entire group on a tour of Skyline Caverns near Front Royal.
On Thursday, the campers spent the afternoon learning Indian dances and songs. That night, after painting their faces, they held an Indian campfire, complete with “Big Chief’ who led the group in songs and stories.
Many visitors also came to the camp. On the night of the Indian campfire, there were representatives from the Boards of Supervisors of the three counties at camp.
