Lassen County 4H’ers welcomed prospective new members at their annual Open House held Monday evening at the Tractor Supply Store on Main Street in Susanville.
Project, animal and educational displays from eight different Lassen County 4H clubs gave visitors a chance to see what amazing things can be done as part of the group.
New enrollments for Lassen 4H begin September 1st, giving youth aged 5 to 19 a chance to participate in hands-on learning experiences.
The 4H Program is an educational youth program conducted by the University of California Cooperative Extension. The purpose of 4-H is to help young people discover and develop their potential and grow into competent, contributing and caring citizens.
Learn-by-doing activities, youth-adult partnerships, and research-based educational programs help young people enhance their leadership abilities and develop a wide range of other life skills including responsibility, community service, citizenship and critical thinking.
4H allows members to explore things like shooting sports, photography, cooking, quilting, art leadership, gardening, animal projects and more.
For more information about 4H membership, contact Darcy Hanson, 4-H Program Representative, at 251-8285 or email her at [email protected].
