To ensure you are receiving all correspondence for Frontier County 4-H, get enrolled today! Make sure to select all appropriate project areas that youth MIGHT participate in. Enroll at v2.4honline.com

Volunteers & Leaders: You also need to enroll (or re-enroll) in 4-H Online. 2024 is also Frontier County's year to re-screen through DHHS, which must be done every 5 years. New this year is the volunteer orientation. Every volunteer/leader must complete this according the the state 4-H office. The volunteer orientation can be found at https://4h.unl.edu/volunteer-orientation.

Youth MUST be enrolled in v2.4honline.com BEFORE the first practice. Youth will NOT be allowed to participate in shooting sports until enrollment (online and paper) and payment are received. Paper enrollment forms can be found here and can be dropped off at the office or brought to the meeting on April 14th.

Register at yqcaprogram.org. If you had registered for the Eustis date that was postponed, there is no need to re-register. If you have not registered, please do so prior to the training; don't forget to take the pre-test! If you have questions, don't hesitate to contact us.

Frontier County 4-H is part of a National 4-H Technology grant, and we are needing a few more participants to reach our statewide goal of 500 people before May 1st.

We are hoping you can help!!!

Here are 2 FREE virtual 30 minute trainings (taught by teenagers) that anyone (youth ages 12+ & adults) can watch and complete survey (found at the end). ASAP please.
