Welcome to Allen County 4-H, we are so excited for your family to join us!
These are some things that you will need to decide before you sign up:
Step 1: Select a Project
This is a list of projects that 4-H offers. https://ohio4h.org/projectguide. Simply flip through the online book and look at all the projects that would fit your interests.
Project Central has preview pages of 4-H Project books to explore what the project might be like. https://ohio4h.org/books-and-resources/project-central
Step 2: Select a Club
Allen County is home to 33 4-H clubs that are located throughout Allen County. Each club is unique in the projects they “specialize” in. Different clubs meet on different days and have either a general project focus, or a specialty focus such as livestock, horses, dogs, rabbits, or special interest projects for example. If you need help deciding on a club, click the link below and we will help you with recommendations.
Step 3: Enrollment
After you decide your project(s) and club, you will need to enroll. Clubs usually start meeting in late February orMarch and the deadline for enrollment is April 15th.
