4-H Youth Development
Murray County 4-H is a unique educational organization open to all youth of Murray County in grades k-12. The program provides young people with knowledge, leadership skills and recreational activities not available elsewhere. We teach youth through "hands on" learning experiences, focused on agricultural and environmental issues, agriculture awareness, leadership, communication skills, foods and nutrition, health, energy conservation, and citizenship. We also assist youth in acquiring knowledge, developing life skills and forming attitudes that will enable them to become self-directing, productive and contributing citizens. The Cloverbuds program is for 4-H'ers kindergarten through fourth grade; Cloverleaf is for grades 4-6 and our Junior/Senior program is for 7-12 grade.
All youth, grades K - 12 residing in Murray County, Ga. can join 4-H. Students in 5th and 6th grades can attend 4-H club meetings in the schools.
Murray County Extension/4-H is adding an online registration option for Events. You will be able to register and pay by Credit Card for events once you have completed the process to create an account.
