Welcome to Chelan/Douglas County 4-H!
We are a youth organization with a mission of engaging youth to reach their fullest potential while advancing the field of positive youth development. It is open to all youth, ages 5 to 18.
Though typically thought of as an agriculturally focused organization as a result of its history, 4-H today focuses on citizenship, healthy living, science, engineering and technology, and animal science.
In addition to the club structure that many are familiar with, Washington State University 4-H offers activities for families that can be done outside of a commitment to a club, and resources for educators to use in their classrooms.[/textblock][textblock]
What do we do?
Currently, Chelan/Douglas County 4-H has a variety of programs and projects that youth ages 5-18 can participate in.
If you don’t see a project that interests you, check out the Washington State University 4-H Youth Development Program website for a complete list of 4-H Projects. There are so many neat opportunities available, sometimes we just need the right person to get it started! Please contact the 4-H Office to see if we can team up.[/textblock][/column][/row][row layout=”halves” ][column][slideshow title=”4-H Homepage Slide Show” ][slide slide_type=”custom” img_src=”https://wpcdn.web.wsu.edu/extension/uploads/2025/05/462131634_936018055230838_1046462565419731620_n.jpg” img_id=”13511″ ][slide slide_type=”custom” img_src=”https://wpcdn.web.wsu.edu/extension/uploads/2025/05/thumbnail_IMG_0987.jpg” img_id=”13518″ ][slide slide_type=”custom” img_src=”https://wpcdn.web.wsu.edu/extension/uploads/2025/05/thumbnail_IMG_0145.jpg” img_id=”13502″ ][slide slide_type=”custom” img_src=”https://wpcdn.web.wsu.edu/extension/uploads/2025/05/IMG_3829-scaled-1.jpeg” img_id=”13520″ ][/slideshow][/column][column][subtitle title=”Ready to Join 4-H?” ][action label=”Sign-up Now!” link=”https://extension.wsu.edu/chelan-douglas/youth/youthdevelopment/join-4-h/how-to-join-4-h/” ][textblock]
