Camp Brulé is a beautiful facility located in beautiful Sullivan County.  Both woods and open fields are available for your enjoyment.  At the center of camp is Elk Lake-ideal for boating, swimming and fishing.  The dining hall overlooks the lake, and clean, modern shower and bathroom facilities stand nearby.  As a camper, you will be housed with another 4-H'er in one of Brulés platform tents.  (girls and boys tenting areas are separated, with adults and counselors in each tenting site).  Pavilions, buildings, and even a shooting range are perfect for the workshop in which you can participate.

A typical day at camp consists of workshops, afternoon camptivities, evening programs and campfire!  Three meals will be served in Camp Brulé's beautiful dining hall.  Campers will spend time with old friends, and get to know new friends as they take part in team recreation and other camp activities.

The Camp Brulé program is a structured, educational 4-H event.  Your son/daughter will be supervised by qualified staff and trained counselors.  Nursing staff are on site throughout camp as well. The five-day program is planned to keep the campers busy with activities centered around natural resources, swimming, recreation, handicrafts, health and fitness, outdoor adventure skills, and leadership.  Each evening, everyone gathers at a campfire to sing and share daily group accomplishments.  The swimming hours will be strictly regulated.  No one is allowed in the water except at the stated times, and then, under the supervision of qualified waterfront personnel.  We hope to send the boys and girls back home happier and better 4-H’ers, because they have had the opportunity to attend this camp.
