Hidden Valley is located within beautiful Watkins Glen State Park and accredited by the American Camp Association. Hidden Valley 4-H Camp provides the experience of a lifetime – independence, life skills, lasting friendships, and natural adventure. Hidden Valley Camp is dedicated to providing a rich, safe, and healthy summer camp experience. Programs at Hidden Valley 4-H Camp are developed by Cornell Cooperative Extension Educators and experienced camp volunteers, drawing upon the research-based youth development knowledge of Cornell University. We offer both a traditional residential camp experience and a day camp with a Thursday evening stay-over: choose what works best for your child and family! New this year: entomology, animal science and engineering options. Complete information (including registration forms) is available on our web site. We think you’ll agree, Hidden Valley is more fun than ever. See you at Camp!
