There's a place for everyone in 4-H!
4-H is run through volunteer-led clubs. These clubs are a safe place to explore new interests, learn through trial and error, and make new friends; all while having the support of a caring mentor. Each 4-H club meets at least 6 times a year. Different projects can be selected based on the interests of the youth involved. These projects are then completed within the club, and can be entered into the Utah County Fair held in August.
Club Charting Requirements Utah 4-H Age Divisions are based on a child’s school grade. Youth who are homeschooled will follow the Utah State Board of Education criteria for grade placement based on age and should enroll in the grade based upon the USBE criteria for their age as of September 1, 2020. *Youth MUST be age 8 AND in 3rd grade to participate in large animal, shooting sports, and ATV projects and activities. Youth turning 8 AND in 3rd grade may participate after their 8th birthday during the 4-H year. Please note that youth must turn 8 by the ownership deadline (100 days prior to the show for cattle, 60 days prior to the show for sheep, goats, and hogs) to participate in the horse and livestock program. Project areas are a great way to not only develop interests but also to gain new life skills. 4-H has more than 150 projects from which to choose. Some of these include:
As a new or returning member, please be sure you select the correct club with your enrollment. If you are planning to be a 4-H Family Club, please select either North UT CO Club or South UT CO Club based on your location North or South of University Parkway. These would be those who plan to complete 4-H projects and activities outside of a Chartered Club. If you are joining us as a Homeschool Family not affiliated with any other chartered club, please select our Utah County Homeschool Club. These three "general clubs" are a great way to begin and get to know other 4-H'ers and eventually break off into your own chartered club. Please, as always, reach out with questions; 385.268.6531.
