2 What is a 4-H Project? 4-H members participate in projects where they are asked to accomplish a task, i.e., make something, develop a skill, raise and/or train an animal, etc. There are numerous projects available to 4-H members including: foods, clothing, public speaking, aerospace, wood science, livestock, health, gardening, photography, and MUCH MORE! Members DO NOT have to be a member of a project specific club in order to complete a 4-H project. 4-H members begin by exploring their interest. They may select one or more projects, and receive a project manual which guides them through the activities. 4-H projects are age appropriate. The 16 year old 4-H member will be expected to do a more advanced project within their area of interest, whereas the 10 year old might be working with and introductory activity. One of the most important aspects of 4-H project work is that the 4-H member decides what they want to learn and do as they explore their project. This allows the project to be self-paced, and gives children important skills in setting and working toward their goals. NOW is the time to be working on your 4-H projects! All requirements for 4-H projects that can be entered at county fair and are eligible for the 2017 KY State Fair Cloverville can be found on our 4-H webpage at: 4-H Awards Banquet The theme is what else??? 4-H!!!
