    Why would someone be interested in attending?
    What's the name of the organization that's putting it on? Is the organization well known/trusted in the community?
    Why don't you want "camp" in the name? If you were to describe the event to someone else and couldn't use the word "camp", what would you say in a single sentence?

    Youth that love adventure - Building friends ships, teambuilding, nature, crafts, a night a way from their parents, should attend.
    The event is being put on by 4-H (yes well known, this event would be member exclusive)
    Unfortunately last year the local 4-H camp was cancelled last minute so I don't want to bring up bad blood but the idea is to offer this NEW opportunity!

    Could you use something like, "4-H Overnight Craft Adventure"?

    Was hoping for something a little more catchy or rhyming....we use 4-H adventure as a an overall theme.

    Why catchy or rhyming? Do you not feel there is inherent value in what you are offering?

    As a rule, "catchy" and/or "rhyming" names are used when the basic benefit is questionable (or non-existent). Instead of promising a compelling reason-why, catchy names seek to entertain, taking focus away from the value.

    How about something like "4-H Friendship Overnight."

    I'd suggest you keep the focus on the benefit for your target audience -- the "what's in it for them."

    "Sunset to Sunrise 4-H Fun"

    In view of the fact that the event will only be promoted to 4-H Members, think about this:

    The Annual 4-H Overnight Adventure Experience
    ... If you miss out, there won't be another one 'til next year.
