Day camp for youth ages 6-12 (as of December 31, 2024)

Cost: $35 

Discovery Days are a fantastic one-day 4-H camp experience for 4-H participants and for youth curious about joining 4-H or wanting to have a fun day.

Please note that these are the official dates for 2025 Discovery Days, and they may be different from what is posted in the 4-H Ontario Resource Guide.

Discovery Days run from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

At Discovery Days, youth aged 6-12 years old explore the wide array of fun and interaction available in 4-H Ontario, through different activities and games.

This years theme is “Get Growing with 4-H”, use your creative side to create a fun craft, explore how to work as a team, showcase your trivia smarts in our famous Go For The Gold game, make a delicious snack that you can then enjoy, and test your skills at Discovery Days Olympics! All of this in just one day!  

Along with all of this, you’ll get a pizza lunch, a T-shirt you can decorate and take home with you and you will meet new friends. Each year is a new experience! Try them all!

“Discovery Days was a perfect introduction to 4-H as it truly captured the essence of the program. From making crafts, to decorating their own shirt, participating in Go for The Gold, and dodging a marshmallow gun all day, they had tons of fun.”

– Participant’s Parent
