| 4-H offers a total educational program for youth from the third grade to age 21. In 1998-99, over 1,000 youth and 100 adult volunteers enrolled in 4-H activities. About 300 youth are in community based clubs, approximately 800 youth are involved in nutrition programming, while 50 students are involved in other in-school programs. All aspects entail "hands-on" learning experiences in personal growth and citizenship training through the development of mental, physical and social skills and mora values. Community and county involvement are available to all youth. No fees are required. The 4-H residential camp is located at Glenwood Park. |
