Twenty‐six campers set up camp at the Redden Lodge on October 26 immediately following the Pumpkin Contest.  The Great Pumpkin, Jackie Arpie, greeted campers and icebreakers made the campers excited about the event! Bats, Pumpkins, Cats and Ghosts groups learned teamwork and had fun playing new games. After reviewing camp rules, the groups enjoyed the large campfire, learned campfire songs, and made s’mores. The group traveled back to the lodge and prepared for lights out. On Sunday everyone was ready for the delicious breakfast. Group leaders reviewed activities of the day and classes began. Groups made a Super Bouncy Ball, a spider craft, and made fall placemats to donate to Meals on Wheels. The groups participated in a scavenger hunt and then it was time to depart! It was a weekend of 4‐H fun, fellowship and new friends! Special thanks to the wonderful counselors and chaperones for volunteering their time to provide this annual 4‐H event which is sponsored by the Sussex Leaders Association.
