There are hundreds of projects in which 4-H youth can participate. Each individual 4-H club offers activities based on members’ interest in a project and availability of an adult volunteer to lead the group in a project.
The new 4-H year began in October and lasts until the following October, so now is a great time to join. The 4-H club is also looking for people in the community who have a talent or skill and would like to volunteer to help with projects. If you have any questions about how to join as a youth member or volunteer, please contact Flo Crisp at flojeancrisp@gmail.com.
