4-H on-line enrollment is open! By successfully completing the 4-H member enrollment between now and June 15, youth will be eligible to participate and exhibit in any project area, contest, county, and state fairs. While project selection is optional, it is encouraged for youth to select projects they are interested in exploring.

The soft deadline is February 1, in order to be on mailing lists and receive news from our office.

Please note:

- 4-H age is based on age as of January 1, 2026.

- Youth are only eligible to exhibit in a project area or contest in a single county.

- Horse and shooting sports projects will continue to require project enrollment due to the parental consent required to participate in these projects.
