September
12- South Cameron Meeting
Our club meeting lessons this year will focus on leadership development and communication. There will be lots of fun challenges and more! But before we can get into those lessons, we will learn proper parliamentary procedure for our club meetings, and we will get to make a fun snack to enjoy: Trail Mix!
4-H enrollment has changed this year to 4-H Online. It’s easy to enroll online by creating your own family profile and adding family members as 4-Hers or volunteers. Click the button How to Enroll in 4-H Online for Cameron Parish for step-by-step instructions on how to enroll. All 4-Hers belonging to their school club must pay their school $10 club dues to join.
All of our camp and event registration will take place in this system. If you’re having trouble accessing the website or completing an enrollment, we have a desktop computer in our office available.
Pick up a trifold at your club meeting and join us Sunday September 18 from 4-6 PM at the 4-H Office for our annual Junior Leader MESS FEST! Any 8th-12th grade 4-H members in the parish can join. Must be enrolled in 4-H Online in a school club or as an at-large member to join.
