The effort to change an old notion about 4H continues as recruiting has moved online. Youth Development Educator Beth Dellatori is emphasizing that 4H is not just for kids growing up on farms.
Dellatori says 4H is for anyone ages five to 18. Even someone who’s never been in 4H and is at the upper end of the age range can join. But she says 4H also needs volunteers to oversee the programs.
She’ll host a Zoom meeting Thursday evening next week on 4H. Anyone interested should contact her and one way to do that is calling 815-224-0891. You can also email her at beth5@illinois.edu.
