4-H Enrollment is now open!
We hope you enroll in 4-H as soon as possible at 4honline.com.
Annual enrollment is the best time to review and update your contact information, the family email address you provide is our primary contact to you! It is also a great time to think about new 4-H projects or clubs you're interested in adding for the new 4-H year.
Check out our website to view details about projects.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
Do you know an adult that has an interest in teaching youth a new skill or serving as a club leader? We currently have Community 4-H Clubs in need of leaders. We are looking to add more SPARK Clubs also. A SPARK club consists of 6 or more hours on a special topic. {ex. Yoga, golfing, sewing, wildlife, almost anything!) Contact one of our 4-H Educators to learn more!
