New Club Alert!
Leeds Sheep 4-H Club
First meeting: Saturday, Mar. 29
Contact John Wernham, john@sweetsheep.ca
Welcome to 4-H in Leeds County!
For over a century, 4-H in Ontario has built youth into leaders in their communities. With starting roots in rural Ontario, Leeds 4-H is open to all youth ages 6-21, of all backgrounds and skill levels. 4-H Ontario’s “Learn To Do By Doing” approach has provided 4-H youth with a place they can be involved, accepted, valued and heard while developing valuable leadership and life skills.
The Leeds 4-H program is run by dedicated volunteers with some having enjoyed 4-H in their youth. These leaders facilitate clubs that are fun and engaging while developing knowledge and skills in the youth. You do not have to have a “rural” background to start in any of the clubs, so come on out and try something new.
Explore our clubs below and hope to see you soon!
