Pick Your Project: In 4-H, we Learn by Doing. We have numerous projects to choose from, such as animal science, electricity, cooking, public speaking, environmental science, community service, and more (See a list of projects here). Projects can be completed with a club or independently at your own pace. Contact Misty Varnell at 828.649.2411 ext. 6 or misty_varnell@ncsu.edu and schedule a time to meet to get started!
4-H Residential Camp: Madison County 4-H will camp at one of the NC 4-H Residential Camps next summer (2023). Your child can look forward to a week of making new friends, swimming, horseback riding, archery, canoeing, rock climbing, games, campfires, sleeping in cabins, and much more. The life skills they learn at camp, including responsibility and independence, will help them in school, when they attend college, and in their first jobs. Read more here. If you are interested in reserving a space for your child to attend 4-H Camp, contact Misty at 828.649.2411 or email misty_varnell@ncsu.edu.
