One Club in One County
A youth can be a member of only one club in one county in Missouri. To have access to
additional educational opportunities, a member may attend project meeting in another club
or county-wide project meetings, but they must enroll all their project in their home
club. This policy does not prevent a 4-H member from enrolling in a school enrichment
program.
If you would like to join a club or become a volunteer leader,
call the Perry County University of Missouri Extension Center at
(573) 547-4504
