4-H clubs meet in several elementary and middle schools throughout Sullivan County. In each meeting members are made aware of current 4-H opportunities and take part in an educational lesson/activity. As a Sullivan County 4-H member you become part of the largest youth organization in the world! There are over 6 million 4-H members just in the United States! Various forms of 4-H are in over 50 countries around the world. With so many kids involved in 4-H, there must be a lot of things to do. And there are! Almost all activities are based on 4-H projects. Projects are topics you choose to learn more about. There are online project resources with ideas of lessons and activities for your age group written by educators at the University of Tennessee. In 4-H, we believe in “Learning by Doing”, so there are also many events you can go to like camps, livestock shows, workshops, and fairs. As you get more involved in these activities, you’ll make lots of friends from all over East Tennessee, the nation, and maybe even the world!
