4-H Camp Grant in Newspaper
UMaine’s 4-H Camp and Learning Center in Woodstock will share in a $692,736 federal grant to implement physical activity and nutrition programs for every student in Oxford County, according to a news story in the Lewiston Sun Journal. The grant includes funding for an experiential education coordinator who will be an employee of the 4-H center and will help with outing clubs, school trips to the 4-H Learning Center, work with teachers, lead backpacking and canoe expeditions, and lead summer camp day programs. The grant was a collaborative effort between the Oxford Hills School District, the Telstar School District in Bethel, the 4-H center and the Bethel-based Mahoosuc Kids Association.
