Individuals work with a group of youth on an annual basis. 4-H Clubs meet regularly and frequency is determined by the membership. There is an emphasis on leadership development and 'learning by doing' through selected projects and public speaking. Commitment includes 4-H leader training, attendance and support at club meetings, record keeping and reporting. Applicants should enjoy working with youth. Contact our office if interested.
All volunteers working with youth are screened prior to undertaking assignments.
