Projects
4-H activities are great fun, but their purpose is not just entertainment. It's teaching skills and values through putting them into practice.
The core 4-H activities revolve around projects. 4-H has both individual and group projects.
Club members choose from a wide range of individual projects, based on their interests and the availability of a knowledgeable adult in the community to serve as a mentor/leader (matching facilitated through clubs). Through these projects, members set goals, learn the skills needed to achieve goals, and exhibit/demonstrate their skills at events like county fairs, speaking contests and other competitions.
