4-H
What Is 4-H?
4-H is a community of young people across America who are learning citizenship, leadership and life skills. 4-H is the community-based educational program of the University of Florida Cooperative Extension Service that involves youth ages 5 - 18 in planned "learn by doing" experiences and positive supportive relationships. 4-H is open to all youth ages 5 - 18 regardless of race, color, religion, sex, disability or national origin.
What is there to do in 4-H?
The first thing to do in 4-H is to choose a project. 4-H members "learn by doing", so your project work may include competing in a contest, going on a field trip, giving a speech, or working with an animal. In addition to becoming an expert in your project area, a 4-H member will learn leadership and communication skills.
There are several clubs in 4-H to choose from. Clubs generally meet once a month and have activities centered around the club theme. Check the Baker County 4-H Clubs page to see what clubs are available.
