**4-H Alberta**

4-H is a youth development organization that guides, supports and inspires Alberta’s greatest resource, the youth of Alberta. We are Alberta’s premier youth organization that encourages youth to learn to do by doing, and empowers them to become leaders and volunteers in their clubs, communities, countries, and the world.

**About 4-H Alberta’s Intro-Club Program**4-H Intro Clubs are a **grant-funded initiative** and an established part of 4-H Alberta’s programming. Designed for youth aged **9 to 15**, these six-week clubs offer a fun and flexible introduction to 4-H through hands-on projects and activities that build confidence, leadership, and communication skills.

Clubs meet once a week for two hours and include key elements of traditional 4-H—such as record books, project work, and community service—delivered in an accessible, short-term format. **The structure of each club may vary** to reflect different themes, interests, or seasonal opportunities.

In addition to the core six-week clubs, **bonus events are offered throughout the year** to keep members engaged and connected to the broader 4-H experience. Some of these will be on weekends.

With multiple clubs offered across Calgary and surrounding communities throughout the fall, winter, and spring, the Intro-Club program is an ideal entry point for families looking for a low-commitment way to explore 4-H. The program continues to grow as a successful model for welcoming new members and expanding 4-H’s reach in urban areas.
