You can join 4-H if you are in grades K through 13. Youth in Kindergarten, first and second grades enroll in the Cloverbud programs.
In order to join here’s what you need to do:
- First, select a 4-H club from the list below. Feel free to contact more than one club and visit more than one club meeting to find one that meets your needs and interests.
- Once you select a club, find the name and phone number for that club’s general leader.
- Next, call the club’s general leader and find out more information about the club and its members. Most 4-H members join in the fall, but new members can join at any time. In order to show a project at the Iowa County Junior Fair, new members must join by April 1st of the current 4-H year. Returning members must join by December 1st.
- Then, attend the 4-H club meeting with your parents, complete the online enrollment information, select your projects and get ready to discover what 4-H is all about! Enrollment information and the project guide are available at http://iowa.uwex.edu/4-h-youth-development/enrollments/
- Parents can also sign up to be leaders! In order to be eligible, they need to have completed the Volunteer Orientation Process, enrolled as 4-H Leader, and signed the Volunteer Behavior Expectations Agreement.
