When the school year begins, we get a flurry of calls asking about 4-H. While 4-H Open House is one of the quickest ways to get information about Washington County 4-H, don’t worry if you missed it. You can always check out our website for the latest information on club meetings, events and activities. Be sure to attend the kick-off meeting, too. This is where you’ll meet club leaders, other members and get your club program for the year. Dates, times and places are on the web calendar.
