What
is a 4-H Project?
·
A 4-H project is a series of learning experiences
for 4-H members. There are 50 project areas available for 4-H'ers
to choose from in
How much does a project cost?
- Project costs vary according to the selection of project and materials. A member enrolled in crafts might use supplies from around the home to practice skills, and may have no additional expenses. Whereas a member who buys and keeps a saddle horse might invest hundreds or thousands of dollars. Members should consider cost as they select projects. Projects should be realistic to the family situation.
What is an exhibit?
-
An exhibit
is an object or display designed to help youth demonstrate what they
have learned. A 4-H exhibit enables youth to explore their interests
and might in turn be the start of a lifelong hobby or career path.
Completing an exhibit also helps youth to understand and build valuable
life skills. Exhibits are displayed and judged at the county and
state fairs. They range from posters and display boards to live
animals.

4-H Club Membership: Youth may become 4-H members when they enter the third grade and may continue their membership through the completion of grade 12. A member may continue membership for a maximum of ten (10) years. Note: Members enrolled prior to the 1998 program year are eligible through the calendar in which they reach age 19 (per previous state membership policy).
An individual’s 4-H grade is determined by the school grade in which he or she is classified regardless of the time of year he or she enrolls in 4-H. A member does not advance in 4-H grade until he or she enrolls in 4-H for the subsequent school year. Each member should enroll in the division of a project that would best suit his/her interest and potential for personal growth and would enhance their family involvement.
Opportunities
in the 4-H program are available to all
enrolling through a Purdue University
