Thank you for your interest in Beaufort County 4-H!
4-H is a youth development organization that serves children aged 5-18 all over the country.There are many ways to get involved. Two of the main ways in Beaufort County:
1. Joining/Starting a 4-H Club
Clubs meet formally once a month and they choose to have other activities to be involved in throughout the month. Joining/Starting a club is a great way to create lasting friendships and have a positive relationship with a caring, trusted adult. Clubs focus on citizenship, leadership, and community service. At each club meeting, they start out with a business meeting, have an educational component, and a social/recreation component.
We have four 4-H Clubs in the county and are looking to start more.
- Bath Creek 4-H Club that is a livestock focused club that meets in Bath.
- Boots and Bounty 4-H Club is a livestock focused club that meets in Bath.
- Crusaders Shooting Sports 4-H Club meets in Washington. It is a shooting sports-focused club that meets from February/March-October. (ages 8-18)
- Harmony Homeschool 4-H Club - meets in Washington.
4-H Clubs rely on adult volunteer leaders to lead the club. If this is something you would be interested in or would like more information on please visit our 4-H Clubs in Beaufort County Webpage .
