Howell County 4-H               

University of Missouri Extension's 4-H educational program empowers young people to reach their full potential while working and learning in partnership with caring adults. As one of the nation's largest youth organizations, 4-H reaches youths, ages 8 to 18, in rural, urban and suburban settings, helping them become competent, capable, caring and contributing members of society.

4-H Clubs in Howell County:

Buckin' Broncos 4-H Club - County-wide Horse Club
Howell County 4-H Shooting Sports Club - County-Wide
Kidfitters 4-H Club - Livestock Projects and More
Heart of the Ozarks 4-H Livestock Club
Bakersfield 4-H Club

For more information about these clubs, to join or to volunteer, contact the  Howell County 4-H staff at the County Extension Center. 417-256-2391

Young people between 8 and 18 are eligible for full 4-H membership. Kids between 5 and 7 years old may join the special "4-H Clover Kids" program. The dues, including insurance, for 4-H clubs are $9 per year for all except the horse clubs which are $10. Various projects may have materials fees and costs, but we try to keep those as low as possible.
