Welcome to Drew County 4-H!
Have you ever wondered what 4-H is all about? Well, now is your opportunity
to learn more about it. Arkansas 4-H is the youth development part of the
Family, Youth, and 4-H Education program of the University of Arkansas
Cooperative Extension Service, Division of Agriculture.
The 4-H youth development program provides opportunities for youth to acquire
knowledge, develop skills, form attitudes, and practice behaviors that will
enable them to become self-directing, productive, and contributing members of
society.
There are no membership fees to join 4-H. Ages of members range from 5-19.
For competitions, 4-H’ers are divided into the following age groups:
- Cloverbuds 5-8 years old
- Juniors 9-13 years old
- Seniors 14-19 years old
The 4-H emblem is a four-leaf clover with the letter H on each leaf. The four
Hs stand for Head, Heart, Hands, and Health.
