Our Clubs

Forest County Clubs

Forest County 4-H provides club programming for youth from ages 5-18. Members learn through hands-on experiences. Belonging to a club focuses youth on involvement and quality experiences that stimulate lifelong learning of values and skills. Members participating in an organized club will meet on a formal basis with elected officers and hold regular meetings or meet informally to work on projects. The program year is October 1 – September 30.

Start a new club

4-H is all about exploration! If you do not see a project or a club that looks like the right fit, you can start a new club.

4-H Clubs require:

• At least 5 youth (from at least two families)
• An adult club leader as point of contact with the 4-H Educator
• A minimum of 2 screened adult volunteers
• Hold regular educational meetings

Contact your county 4-H educator to discuss the process of developing a new club.
