4-H Enrollment Instructions
When you go to 4-H Online, you will be prompted to create an account for your family. You will then add individual profiles for each family member participating in 4-H.
During enrollment, you will be prompted to choose both clubs and projects, so you should decide prior to enrolling on a club you would like to join and what 4-H topics you would like to explore. If you’re not sure, contact us for help getting placed with a club or finding the right project(s) for you. Alternatively, instead of selecting a club, you can choose "Contact me about clubs" and go ahead and submit your enrollment(s) before deciding.
