Enrollment Information 2017-2018.
4-H is all about giving youth the skills to grow and thrive in today's world. Through hands-on "learn by doing" activities kids gain practical knowledge and understanding of life skills such as goal setting, planning, record keeping and public speaking. They learn collaborative skills and have many opportunities to learn teamwork and leadership. They seek out and become aware of the world around them through community service events. You can get further information of what 4-H is about at the National 4-H website http://4h.org. Late in August 2017 we will hold our club “Informational Meeting” for interested families.
