4-H Youth Program
4-H enables youth to have fun, meet new people, learn new life-skills, build self-confidence, learn responsibility, and set and achieve goals! We have a great program here in Martin County, with a fun bunch of kids, dedicated parents, teachers and community leaders. Please let me know if you have any questions or wish to get involved. Contact Cindy...
The joy of 4-H is seeing young people grow through their accomplishments. 4-H helps youth reach their fullest potential through:
- developing life-skills
- learning by doing
- utilizing the knowledge of the land-grant university system
4-H Builds the Leaders of Tomorrow
4-H enables youth to have fun, meet new people, learn new life-skills, build self-confidence, learn responsibility, and set and achieve goals! Youth learn by doing and receive an award for a project.
- Members can range from age 8 to age 18.
- 4-H starts on a club level, then moves onto a county, district, state, national and international level.
- 4-H offers such a wide range of projects, programs and activities that every member can do well in 4-H.
- Each exhibit receives a ribbon award- purple, blue, red, white, or participation, according to the judging.
- Premiums are usually given and some projects advance onto state level!
- Parents, volunteers, community leaders, and Extension staff share their time and talents with 4-H youth.
