‘Learn about 4-H’ sessions planned

Published 1:32 am Wednesday, September 28, 2016

WSU Extension’s 4-H Youth Development Program is now enrolling for the 2016-2017 4-H year. 4-H programs teach life skills through hands-on experiential learning. Head, Heart, Hands and Health are the four Hs in 4‑H, and they are the four areas members work on through fun and engaging programs.

In honor of National 4-H Week, families and potential volunteers are invited to “Learn About 4-H” in your community. Please plan to attend one of the following 4-H information sessions to learn about the great opportunities available through the 4-H program. Children always are welcome!

Tuesday, Oct. 4, 5-5:30 p.m. Port Angeles Library

Thursday, Oct. 6, 4:30-5 p.m. Sequim Library
