4-H Youth Development
4-H is a fun, educational program for youth ages 5-18. 4-H has something to offer everyone, and anyone can join. No membership fees are required, although some project materials and activities may have a cost.
Joining a 4-H club is a great way to have fun, learn new things and meet people. Clubs meet in schools, community centers or at a 4-H volunteer's home.
What's great about 4-H are the many ways to get involved and to participate. The best way to determine what's right for you is to contact the 4-H Agent Sherri Hood. You will discover exciting new programs and activities.
There are endless opportunities for volunteer service within 4-H. If you are interested in becoming a 4-H volunteer contact the 4-H office.
