4-H is a fun, informal educational organization for youth in grades K-13. In 4-H, youth learn practical skills, leadership roles, citizenship, and teamwork. 4-H club members hold regular meetings, elect officers, plan agendas, and work on 4-H projects throughout the year, all with the guidance of adult volunteers. 4-H programming can also be provided through school enrichment programs, afterschool programs, short-term programs, independent projects, and weekend or camping programs. In 2010-11, more than 360 youth participated in 4-H club programs, and 600 youth participated in afterschool programs and school enrichment. Call us to find out how you can join this exciting youth organization!
