Hello Parents and 4-H’ers,

4-H … The Fun Starts Here!

We kick off all of our school clubs, homeschool clubs, and special interest clubs this month, and we are excited to meet all of our new 5th graders and other new 4-H’ers!

One of our favorite things about 4-H is that there is space for everyone to plug in and find their spark. In this newsletter, you will find a list of all the programs and activities we offer in Camden County 4-H, so keep reading and we hope to see you soon at one of our events!
