4-H Outdoor Adventure

The Outdoor Adventure program is designed to get youth excited about spending time outdoors. It is our hope that the program promotes opportunities for youth to explore and learn about their natural environment through different avenues. Events are typically scheduled during the second weekend of every month throughout the year. Please contact Erica Clark to get more info and to sign up for a program.
