4-H YOUTH DEVELOPMENT	The 4-H/Youth Development Program creates opportunities and supportive environments for youth and adults to become capable, competent and caring citizens. The emphasis is "hands-on" learning that focuses on the youth's area of interest. Programs are conducted with the help of parents, adult volunteer leaders and professional staff who organize educational experiences. Youth participate in organized 4-H clubs, special interest and project groups, 4-H school enrichment programs, 4-H camp and other special activities.

     Come be a member of the worlds largest club for boys & girls!  4-H is open to any youth ages 9-17. In Clinton County your first encounter with 4-H will be in the 4th grade. We have regular monthly meetings in the classroom where the children are the officers and conduct
the meetings. 4-H also offers Speech, Demonstrations & Poetry Competitions where they will have a chance to go on to Area Competitions.
     Our after school programs include LCATS which stands for Lake Cumberland Area Teens, Horse Club Projects, Livestock Club Projects, BB Shoot, Exhibit Hall Entries, Foothills Float Club and not to forget 4-H Camp.     4-H is a wonderful way to learn and experience new things.
     Come join us in this adventure!!!!!
