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 on "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.

Our 4-H program is an educational opportunity for youth ages 9 to 19 years of age to meet in a club setting and choose from over 150 different project areas.  Through the club setting, other life skills such as leadership, citizenship and public speaking are learned.  4-H School Enrichment programs are also available to all schools in the county.
