Last chance for 4-H enrollment is Jan. 15

Jan. 15 is the final day for Indiana youth in grades 3-12 to enroll online in the 4-H Program for 2019. Hamilton County will hold an Information Night with extended hours from 4 to 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 9 at the Purdue Extension Hamilton County office located on the 4-H Fairgrounds, 2003 Pleasant St., Noblesville. There will be refreshments and 4-H giveaways. Get everything you need for the new year of 4-H.

4-H prepares young people to be leaders in their community and around the world through hands-on experiences alongside their peers and caring adults. Youth can learn life skills such as cooperation, leadership, decision-making, responsibility and more in the areas of Science, Healthy Living and Citizenship.

A great opportunity to develop a hobby, experience camp, and make new friends, 4-H is family-oriented and promotes family togetherness. Youth in grades K-2 may enroll in Hamilton County Mini 4-H at no cost.

If you are interested in 4-H but have some questions, want to enroll but don’t know how, or just want to pick up the new handbook, come to the Purdue Extension Hamilton County office on the 4-H Fairgrounds or call 317-776-0854 weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
