Are You Into It?
 
What is a Club?
  • five or more youth
  • led by a volunteer or volunteers/parents
  • Clubs meetings should be held at least once a month
  • with both educational and social activities
  • a parent or another adult is expected to participate with their 5-8 year old child
  • develop an annual plan of work/club calendar w/ age-appropriate activities
  • elected officers: President, Vice-President, Secretary, and Reporter
  • assign leadership roles for each meeting
  • meet over at least a nine-month period
  • remain active in whatever countywide events are taking place, for example, camp, Congress, District Activity Day, and summer fun activities
  • A basic club meeting will have a beginning where the 4-H'ers will say the 4-H pledge and the American pledge and a business/informational update, an educational program, and a recreational/social component.
  • Clubs can meet in homes, churches, community buildings, schools during non-school hours, after-school programs, and anywhere else in the community that would provide a safe location for young people to meet.
All clubs are open to all youth regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, or disability.
