We have 4-H club meetings monthly that provide 4-H’ers the chance to learn about what 4-H has to offer in upcoming months as well as various educational opportunities. We begin 4th – 8th grade in-school club meetings in September at each school. We have a County Council Club that is a general 4-H meeting open to all 4-H’ers regardless of which age group, school, etc they are in. Most of our high school, private school and home school 4-H’ers attend this meeting to get updates. Our County Council Meetings are held September-May, third Thursdays each month at 6:30pm @ the Peach Co. 4-H office. This is a general 4-H introductory meeting that outlines the activities planned for the year.
If there are programs that interest you and need more information about, feel free to contact us! There is no cost to be a 4-H Club member but some of our activities, like summer camp, have a fee for that specific event.
