Our 4-H Youth Development program is a dynamic non-formal education program. It provides opportunities for youth to acquire life skills and gain knowledge while having fun. The life skills learned in 4-H enable youth to become productive, well-informed, self-reliant, responsible adults.

We encourage all youth in the county to join our programs. The following are the age classifications per group:

Cloverbud: Ages 5 (and in Kindergarten) to 8 years old.

Novice: Ages 9 to 11 or age 8 and in the 3rd grade prior to January 1 of the current 4-H year.

Junior: Ages 12 to 13. A 4-H member must have passed his/her 12th birthday or be 11 years old and in the 6th grade but not have passed his/her 14th birthday prior to January 1 of the current 4-H program year.

Senior: Ages 14 to 19. A 4-H member must have passed his/her 14th birthday or be 13 years old and in the 8th grade, but not have passed their 19th birthday prior to January 1 of the current 4-H program year.
