4-H Volunteers
Volunteers and parents help make 4-H possible. Without 4-H volunteers and parents the program would not have the mentors and leaders that 4-H'ers need to learn the new skills. With each volunteer comes knowledge, experiences, and skills which can be taught to 4-H youth and shared with the 4-H program "to make the best better." Volunteers and parents are a major reason for 4-H's success in youth development. Since 1902, parents and volunteers have helped the 4-H program develop successful leaders, build young minds, and set the path for 4-H'ers to take the world by storm.
If you are interested in becoming a 4-H Volunteer, please complete the application on the Volunteer Enrollment Page and contact the Extension Office at 419-354-9050 for more information and to set up an interview.
