Camp Director Ariel Blanton spoke about the significant and positive impact of this Fire Pit Circle. Established in 1926 and boasting 14 acres on the Choctawhatchee Bay, Camp Timpoochee is the 2nd oldest 4-H camp in the country and was the first in Florida.
The fire pit is the heart of the camp where campers come together to make friends, s’mores, sing songs and share their favorite memories about their time at camp.
In addition to summer 4-H and Marine Camps, Camp Timpoochee is a popular event venue.
