When joining a club, consider these issues:
  • Think about your project interest.  Some clubs will work with all projects; some have limits on the type of project they will accept in their club.  If you have a specific interest, you will want to look for a club that works with your project interest.  If you do not have a project interest at this point, you will want to look for a club that accepts all projects.
  • Schedule.  Find a club whose meeting schedule is possible for you.  Some clubs have a set meeting night and some clubs vary their meeting night to accommodate various family schedules.  You will need to contact the club leader and find out the cub's meeting times.
  • Once you have decided on a club(s) that might be a possibility for you, call and ask the 4-H leader if you can visit at their next club meeting.  It is okay to visit more than one club before deciding which is the best club for you.
  • Enrolling in 4-H takes place at club meetings.  Enrollment forms are distributed and collected by club leaders.  Other 4-H information is also distributed by the leader at sign-up time.

    4-H club membership dues are $10.00.

    Project books are to be paid for when they are picked up by either the leader or member.  (Books are $5.00 or as marked.)

    Members living out of county, must have an "Across County Line" form on file in the Extension Office.


    See Forms and Application for current enrollment forms.
