These hands-on, interactive workshops cover various topics, including science, agriculture, arts, leadership, and more, allowing participants to explore their interests while building valuable skills. Open to youth ages 5-7 and 8-12, this program allows for creative knowledge and skill development in a supportive and fun environment. Whether participants are new to 4-H or seasoned members, the workshops provide a platform for learning and personal growth, while emphasizing the 4-H motto of "Learning by Doing."

February 6th: First Aid in Action

Join the 4-H First Aid in Action program and gain the essential skills to be a confident helper in an emergency! You'll master the basics of administering first aid for common injuries like cuts, burns, and nosebleeds, focusing on the critical Check-Call-Care procedure. We'll explore the vital role of the 911 dispatcher—the trained professional on the other end of the call who guides you and coordinates emergency responders. Best of all, you’ll assemble and take home your own basic first aid kit containing essential items like assorted bandages, antiseptic wipes, gauze, medical tape, and an emergency contact list, empowering you to safely assist your family and community.

All programs will be held at the NC Cooperative Extension office located at 120 Community Way, Barco NC 27917 starting at 5:30 pm and ending at 7:30 pm. These programs are free, but space is limited.  Please note that there are two age groups for each workshop (5-7 and 8-10)-make sure to select the correct section when completing the registration form.

All participants must also be enrolled in 4-H Online for the 2026 program year; the link to that portion of the registration process is https://v2.4honline.com/.
