Club Directory 

Register

The 4-H Online database is the method for Online Registration. The database tells the club leader and the extension office who you are, where you live, and what your project interests are. 

There is an annual program enrollment fee of $40 to enroll in 4-H. This fee helps support county and state 4-H Programs. From September 1st - December 31st the Winnebago County Extension Counsil covers the fee for our youth. If you enroll in the Winnebago County 4-H program after the December 31st date you will be paying the $40 enrollment fee. If you feel that this fee would be a financial burden, financial aid is available from the Iowa 4-H Foundation or contact the County Youth Coordinator for assistance.
