The 4-H Vision
New Hampshire 4-H Youth Development envisions a world in which youth and adults learn, grow, and work together as catalysts for positive change.

Mission Statement
New Hampshire 4-H Youth Development, a program of UNH Cooperative Extension, empowers youth to reach their full potential working and learning in partnership with caring adults.

Description:
4-H Camps promote positive youth development by providing a camp experience that encourages Independence, Generosity, Mastery and Belonging. 4-H Camps emphasize acceptance, health & fitness, communication, positive decision making abilities and social skills in a fun, informal, educational, inclusive environment.

Located deep in the woods, Bear Hill 4-H Camp is a traditional rustic camp with its own lake for boating and swimming. Camp cabins house 4-6 campers, grouped by age and gender, with 1-2 counselors per cabin. Cabins (without electricity!) are arranged in units of 8 cabins, with each unit having its own lodge and a central restroom with toilets and running water. There are two shower facilities accommodating campers and staff. Bear Hill 4-H Camp is approximately 30 minutes from Concord and Manchester.
