CHIPPEWA FALLS – Youth from across Wisconsin are invited to learn about cooperatives and leadership at Farmers Union Day Camps this summer. All youth are welcome to attend the free camps. Those enrolled in the Farmers Union Youth Program can fulfill one of their program requirements by attending an organized day camp in their area.
Day camps bring the fun and learning of the WFU camp program to your local community. Supported by county/local Farmers Union organizations, day camps are a great way to meet new friends, have fun while working together, and learn more about the importance of family farmers and strong communities.
