Welcome to a new year with Simpson Co. 4-H! We have 16 clubs this year, led by some amazing volunteer leaders that are excited to welcome you! To attend club meetings, you must have a new enrollment form on file, that you have completed since September 1 of this month! If you haven’t, please get this done by September 30. All forms (youth & leader) received by October 1 – your name will go into a drawing for a 4-H hoodie.

 

Enclosed in the newsletter is the county brochure of clubs. On the front is a QR code – you can scan this code to enroll online – or enrollment forms are in a box by the Extension Office back door. They can be accessed 24/7 and left in the mail slot on the office backdoor at anytime.
