Clover Kids:
If you are between the ages of 5 and 8, you cannot be considered an official
member of 4-H, but can be a Clover Kid. Clover Kids are eligible to
participate in 4-H projects but cannot compete. Being a Clover Kid helps you to decide what projects you want to be involved in when you become a 4-H
member.

4-H Member:
4-H is open to all children that are 8 years old and in the third grade to 18 years old. These members are eligible to compete in 4-H sponsored events. Each year, between September 1-October 31st there will be a $20 participation fee, after October 31st it will cost $25. There are projects that will require an investment, please acquire additional information
before beginning projects. To join 4-H, all you need to do is go to 4-H Connect via the State 4-H page and start a profile for you family. After you have submitted all participants names and fees, you will begin to receive a monthly newsletter from the Extension Office. The newsletter includes deadlines, as well as information about upcoming projects and events. As an adult how can I become involved with the 4-H program? Adults interested in assisting the 4-H program can become volunteers. Volunteers are able to help with a number of items throughout the year. Our volunteers can be club managers, project leaders, chaperones or can help with refreshments and transportation to and from events. If you are interested in becoming a 4-H volunteer, all you have to do is complete a 4-H Volunteer Form and submit it to our office. For the protection of our 4-H members, all forms are sent to the State Office where they perform background checks. What projects are offered through Erath 4-H? Our projects include but are not limited to:Beef, Clothing & Textiles, Consumer Education, Dairy, Dog, Foods & Nutrition, Goats, Horse, Photography, Public Speaking, Sheep, Shooting Sports, and Swine.

The Texas 4-H State Champion Dairy Judging Team from Erath County recently competed at the 104th National Youth Judging Contest held in conjunction with the World Dairy Expo in Madison, Wisconsin. Team members Luke Kuiper, Katie Osinga, Kylie Osinga, and Jaclyn Osinga come from local dairy families and have been perfecting their judging skills since they were in 3rd grade.

While their judging careers may have come to a close on the prestigious colored shavings, the memories they made and the skills they developedā€”learning to analyze, think critically, and articulate their thoughtsā€”are life skills they will carry with them for years to come. We are incredibly proud of each of you and all the hard work, dedication, and commitment you have shown along the way. Congratulations, Luke, Katie, Kylie, and Jaclyn!

Luke Kuiper: 3rd high individual in Guernsey
