Clinton County 4-H Trips

The 4-H Council sponsors a trip program for all active 4-H members. This program is unique to Clinton County and has existed in some form for many years. Every year, each 4-H member may earn the opportunity to participate in a trip that is planned especially for their grade by meeting some basic criteria. 

The criteria for earning a trip is that youth must: 

  • Be enrolled in a Clinton County 4-H Club 
  • Complete at least one project during the program year
  • Participate in a minimum of 50% of the general meetings of their local 4-H club 
  • Participate in a helping job at the Fair
  • Completion of the annual 4-H Member Year-End Report in September

Youth must also be enrolled in a Clinton County 4-H club at the time they participate in the trip.
