BUREAU COUNTY - Bureau County 4-H believes children can grow when they are surrounded by people who are cheering for their success. That is why 4-H brings youth together in clubs, led by caring adults, who welcome them as part of a larger 4-H community.

4-H encourages children to be themselves by exploring what is interesting to them and choosing a path that leads to happiness. Because one size doesn’t fit all, there are many ways to customize 4-H to fit your family’s needs. Anyone excited to get started can begin their 4-H adventure today.

Bureau County 4-H offers clubs in many communities throughout the county. They are currently seeking youth ages 5-18 to be a part of the largest out-of-school youth organization in Illinois.

For more information on the 4-H program and how to enroll, contact Bureau County 4-H & Youth Development Program Coordinator, Danielle Gapinski at (815) 875-2878 or des85@illinois.edu.
