Hi Kids & Parents!
Registration for the Edmonton 4-H Multi Club opens soon for the 2025/2026 year!
That's right. 4-H is now available in the city! You're invited to join us at our upcoming Open House on Tuesday, September 16th from 7:00pm to 8:30pm at the Bellevue Community Centre at 7308 - 112 Avenue in Edmonton to find out what we're all about.
Ignite your child’s passion for learning and leadership with 4-H Alberta! Our thriving community nurtures youth through hands-on projects in life skills, science, technology, agriculture, community involvement, and public speaking. Give them the 4-H advantage!
The 4-H motto is "Learn To Do By Doing." Projects offered, based on interest and leader availability may include: Arts and Crafts, Outdoor Pursuits, DnD gaming, Foods, Video Game Development, Woodworking and Exploring 4-H.
Please RSVP to Edmonton4h@gmail.com
Members will participate in fun projects and learn through hands on experiences designed to increase knowledge, track their progress and give them a sense of accomplishment and good self-esteem.
Our city-based club is unique as we don’t offer the traditional beef & horse projects that many are familiar with, but instead offer a wide range of life-skills projects (based on interest/enrollment) which have included but not limited to: Automotives, Video Game Development, Archery/Outdoor Pursuits, Sewing, Urban Agriculture, Photography, Small Animal (Rabbits) D & D Gaming, Exploring 4-H, and Foods.
Members will meet at least once a month in a group setting with leaders to practice and master the materials.
Commitment
Along with the monthly project specific group get-togethers, commitment also includes attending one club business meeting a month (usually the 1st Monday evening each month), completing a record book tracking project progress, and achievement day. Our club also participates in regular fun outings like laser tag & trampoline park along with a Highway Clean Up fundraiser in May, a 4-H Regional Life Skills Fair, and the 4-H Communications (Public Speaking) Competition.
