Granby 4-H sign-up night is scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 5 at the Holcomb Farm Workshop. This open house from 7 to 8 p.m. will introduce the youth-officer team, leaders and project groups available for the 2022-23 program year.
There are eight monthly meetings per year, November to June, on the first Monday of the month. Meetings start at 7 p.m. and are run by 4-H officers. Smaller groups that members sign up for are led by volunteers willing to share their knowledge or talent. Some of these may be monthly while others are seasonal. This is where hands-on learning takes place. New project groups include fishing, maple-syrup making and photography.
The Hartford County 4-H Fair in August is the highlight of the year, with members submitting record books and displaying projects.
Parent and community volunteers are needed to provide the Club members with a continued variety of projects. Past groups have included painting, homesteading, sewing, cooking and animal showmanship. Please consider what you have to offer. All are encouraged to share their knowledge with the 4-H youth.
