4th H Club Challenge

2024 4th H Club Challenge

ABOUT THE CHALLENGE

Registration is currently closed for 2024. Check back later for information about the 2025 Challenge.

We pledge our "health to better living" but do we actually practice it? The 4th H Club Challenge encourages Ohio 4-H Clubs to learn, practice, and advocate for healthy choices and behaviors at 4-H club meetings. Practicing healthy habits and choices now has lifelong effects on the health of youth.

Each club that completes the challenge before the deadline will enter into the $100 voucher drawing for their region to use for their club (project books, educational tools, etc.)! How does it work? Apply 3 healthy practices per meeting (see list below) at 6 or more 4-H clubs/meetings from January - December 2024.

If your club already does some health practices, great! We encourage you to challenge yourselves with different or new health practices for your club.

  1. Register and complete pre-survey. REGISTER HERE

  2. Record the dates and activities in the 4th H tracker link. (the tracker link will be provided after registering)

  3. Share a picture of your club doing a healthy practice on social media. Be sure to include the official hashtag #Ohio4thHClubChallenge.

  4. Submit all activities to the tracker link by December 31st, 2024.
