The study was designed to provide information about older 4-H members who lived in the seven counties invited to attend the Southern Ohio Teen Camp in 1977. The study group consisted of camper and non-camper groups. All 92 campers participated. A 10 percent random sample was drawn from each of the 7 counties non-camper lists, resulting in 156 mailed questionnaires. Forty-six percent responded.

It was found that non-campers tended to have been in 4-H longer than the campers; more non-campers were employed away from home; campers valued free time and dancing highest while non-campers valued recreation and vespers highest; and camper generally preferred a summer teen camp during weekdays, of five days in length while non-campers generally preferred a spring or fall teen camp over the weekends.
