JOIN THE CLUB!
El Dorado County 4-H has over 400 youth members and nearly 100 adult volunteers engaged in a wide variety of learning and leadership experiences across eight club programs on the Western slope and after-school programs in South Lake Tahoe.
The 4-H youth development program empowers youth to reach their full potential by working and learning in partnership with caring adults. The 4-H slogan “Learn by Doing” sums up the educational philosophy of the 4-H program as research shows young people learn best when they are involved in their own learning.
Youth ages 5-18 are invited to come find their "sparks" in 4-H. Sparks are the things young people are passionate about, this could be animals, leadership, technology, public speaking, teaching, volunteering, fashion design, hiking, cooking... the list goes on. With the new 4-H Sparks Achievement program youth are encouraged to set their own goals and work towards accomplishing them throughout the year.

All 4-H members are enrolled in a Primary Club. These youth-led clubs meet once a month (September-May) to conduct business and deliver 4-H programming. Your club is your home base--the place you go to get information, make connections, and build community. Find a Club that meets your needs when it comes to scheduling, location, interests, etc. Countywide projects are open to all members regardless of which Primary
