Clubs

There are a number of 4-H clubs throughout the Valley. Some clubs focus on specific projects, while others have a more broad focus. Any youth is able to participate in any project in any club. However, if a club does not have a leader for a specific project, families will need to find a project leader or other helper to assist them. Contact the office to get list of current project leaders. Clubs in the SLV are open for enrollment to anyone in the Valley.
