The Yuba County Board of Supervisors authorized the use of the 4-H Camp in Dobbins for another year, even though the youth development program had to forego its long-term maintenence of the facility, according to an article in today's Appeal-Democrat.
In early March (as was reported in this blog entry), UC Cooperative Extension decided it was no longer practical for the University of California to maintain a camp all year that it used just one week each summer.
In today's article, writer Andrea Koskey reported that Yuba County administrative services will open the camp and waive fees for the Yuba and Sutter county 4-H program so it could use of the facility for a week this June.
Tracy Bishop, president of the Yuba County 4-H volunteer management organization, said she wasn't certain the group would take up the supervisors' offer this year as the organization has already been looking at other options for the summer 2008 outdoor camp, according to the story.
