In response to Coronavirus (COVID-19) and following UCANR guidelines on social distancing to minimize its spread, all in-person UCCE Mariposa 4-H Program club, council, and county level events are cancelled through May 31st.
Camp Tweety has unfortunately been cancelled this year. Our office will begin processing refunds to those members that have already paid and we are working to reserve Camp Oakhurst for next year's camp.
4-H Youth Development Program
4-H is a program of the University of California Cooperative Extension (UCCE) which is a collaboration between Federal, State, and County governments. Each County maintains a Cooperative Extension office with 4-H staff who conduct research and extend knowledge in their areas of expertise. The 4-H youth development staff work with volunteers to deliver the 4-H program in our county.
4-H is an educational program to assist youth in their development by
- Providing learn-by-doing educational experiences.
- Developing skills that benefit youth through out life.
- Strengthening families and communities.
- Fostering leadership and volunteerism in youth and adults.
- Building partnerships for programming and funding.
- Using research-based knowledge from the land-grant university system.
The 4-H program purpose is achieved through the development and support of leadership teams of staff, volunteers, youth, and others who organize and conduct educational project experiences in community and family settings.
