4-H Clubs
What are 4-H Clubs?
4-H clubs are made up of area youth and their families. The club has regular meetings where youth participate in activities and help plan upcoming events. The 4-H clubs are not only active within their own community, but they are also involved in activities involving the entire county. Being a member of a 4-H club allows youth to gain great leadership skills in a safe and fun environment.
