What is 4-H?
4-H is a community of young people who are learning leadership, citizenship and life skills while just having fun!
Why do kids and teens like 4-H?
They get to do things that interest them and at the same time have fun with friends.
What kind of stuff do you get to do in 4-H?
It's up to you! 4-H has changed in the past few years. You can still do traditional activities animal projects or entering county fair projects BUT now you can also do more innovative things. For example, how would you like to build and program a robot or learn how to geocache using a GPS unit? Maybe you would like to learn to shoot a bow and arrow or learn how to use a rifle? The choice is yours in 4-H! You name it! We have activities and projects on any subject you are interested in.

Youth ages 9-19 can join at anytime. Children ages 5-8 can join our Cloverbud Club.
