Hello, this is Nicki Carpenter, 4-H Youth Development Extension Agent with the N.C. Cooperative Extension, Burke County Center.

4-H is a fun program where you get to “Learn by Doing.” With more than 10,000 established 4-H programs across North Carolina, you can be a part of 4-H wherever you live. All youth between the ages of 5 and 19 are invited to join! In 4-H you can go to camp, start a business, ride in a bike rodeo, take part in an international exchange, raise an animal, create a blog, give a presentation, participate in a community service project, develop your resume, practice interview skills, learn about healthy eating habits, build lifelong friendships. Best of all, membership is FREE! 4-H costs nothing to join, and you are not required to purchase or wear a uniform. 4-H participation not only looks great on job and college applications, it prepares youth to deal with current life struggles, build communication skills, boost their confidence and gives a sense of belonging!

The easiest way to get started is to check out our website burke.ces.ncsu.edu and click on Burke County 4-H Information. Here you will find current and past and upcoming opportunities. This site also has links to follow us on Facebook and Instagram. You can also call our office at 828-764-9480

Thank you, this has been Nicki Carpenter, 4-H Youth Development Extension Agent with the N.C. Cooperative Extension, Burke County Center.
