4-H Membership Paperwork

Have you completed your 4-H paperwork?

It's important.  It helps cover liability while your child participates in 4-H.

A youth becomes a "4-H member" upon completion of an individual enrollment form and a 4-H medical release form (requires notarization) which must be on file in the county Extension Office.  A youth participates in 4-H by belonging to a 4-H club or any recognized unit of membership in Jackson County.

Find these forms here:  https://jackson.ces.ncsu.edu/categories/4-h-youth-development/
