2025 UPDATES

​​

  • For 2025 and following, the 4-H enrollment deadline will be 7 days after the final species county validation date. ​

  • 4-H Eligibility: Youth may enroll in 4-H on August 1 if they are 8 AND in the 3rd grade on September 1.  If they turn 8 after September 1 and are in 3rd grade, they will not be eligible to enroll in 4-H until the next 4-H year, but hey may participate as a Cloverbud.  When a child turns 9, they may join as a 4-H member regardless of grade level.  4-H membership ends on July 31 following the completion of the 12th grade, equivalency of 12th grade, GED or having reached the age of 19 on or before September 1, whichever comes first.  Graduated High school seniors may complete their 4-H career by exhibiting in the fall fairs.  A 4-h member's enrollment status must have been "active" the previous year to exhibit in the fall fairs. 

  • 2025 Nomination dates will be posted sometime in September or October. 

  • CCJLS is currently looking for nominations to fill one Board spot for the upcoming year. Contact Todd Graves for more information. 

  • Board meetings are open and held every third Wednesday of the month. Visit the Board meetings tab for more info. 

  • IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Each stall a student uses must be swept out into the alley by the end of the premium sale. If you stall in or clip in a stall you are responsible for sweeping it into the alley or your school will be fined. Schools may choose to fine the individual student if they see fit.
