Clubs

A: To select a club, please think about the following:

Q: Is there a project-based club that the youth has a passion about?

      A: Yes – sign up for that club. There is no need to sign up for any additional clubs.

Q: Do the club meetings fit in with my schedule?

Q: Is the club geared to my child’s age? 4-Hers in grades K-2 should join a mini 4-H club.

Q: What if a club works best but is not in the youth’s school district or area of residence?

      A: You may go to any club! We recommend picking one that works best for your family's schedule. Sometimes it works better to attend a club that is farther away based on meeting times.
