Why do young people like 4-H?
They have fun with friends at meetings, social activities, tours, trips, camps, and fairs. They learn to do interesting things such as take care of animals, plants, redecorate their rooms, fix their bikes, take pictures, practice cooking, and collecting rocks. And, they help others to learn more about their 4-H projects, provide leadership to younger kids, as well as serve others through community service activities.
Getting involved in 4-H is easy!
There are many ways to get involved in the 4-H program in Kentucky. Regardless of where you live in Kentucky, there is a 4-H program near you. All Kentucky counties have a 4-H program.
If you are between the ages of 5 and 19, you can get involved in 4-H by calling your county extension office and talking with the 4-H agent.
You can join a 4-H club in your county or sign up as an individual 4-H member. Most clubs meet on a monthly basis, although some meet more often.
You may also volunteer to assist at state level events and serve on committees. Find your application at: (volunteer application link)
We also offer special programs throughout the year as well as summer camping at our four 4-H camps. |
