Junior Leadership Florence County Kicks Off With An Opening Retreat

The 2023-2024 Junior Leadership Florence County 4-H Program traveled to Camp Bob Cooper this week for their successful opening retreat! The group enjoyed rock climbing and swimming in Lake Marion while bonding with team building, leadership development designed for high schoolers, and of course, s’mores.

The students will reconvene in August for a social bowling event, and the monthly sessions begin in September with Education Day.

The JLFC program is made possible through the partnership of Clemson Extension 4-H, Francis Marion University, and the Greater Florence Chamber of Commerce, as well as the involvement of the Florence County community.

Thank you to Camp Bob Cooper for our stay and to Florence School District Two for providing transportation for the students.
