Basic 4-H Forms:

4-H Enrollment/Re-enrollment Packet (Non-Horse): A 4-H Enrollment Packet needs to be completed when youth wish to join 4-H as well as each year they would like to re-enroll in 4-H. It is also used to change their contact information when necessary. This form must be signed by both the 4-H member and their parent or guardian. Please be sure to print and complete the entire form or you can complete it digitally using this link
4-H Enrollement/Re-enrollment Packet (Horse): This is a specific enrollment packet meant for 4-H youth involved in equine activities. If you are in a 4-H horse club or participate in 4-H horse activities, please fill this version out instead of the one linked above.
NYS 4-H Code of Conduct: All 4-H Participants—youth, families, volunteers, and Extension staff—in or attending any activity or event sponsored by Cornell University’s Cornell Cooperative Extension (CCE) 4-H Youth Development Program are required to uphold the values of the NYS 4-H program and conduct themselves according to these standards. The standards also apply to online activity, including social media internet presence. (This form is included in the 4-H Enrollment/Re-enrollment Packet.)
4-H Project/Activity Record Book: This book is completed at the end of the 4-H year (October 1) or prior to the Jefferson County 4-H Youth Fair. This Project/Activity Record is used as a tool to complete a project for the County Fair or to turn into the 4-H office so that the youth can be acknowledged during the recognition event in November.
4-H Cloverbud Project/Activity Record: This Project/Activity Record is used as a tool to complete a project for the County Fair or to turn into the 4-H office so that the youth can be acknowledged during the recognition event in November.
New York State 4-H Portfolio - Annual Summary: The 4-H Portfolio documents a young person’s participation in 4-H projects and activities throughout his/her membership years. Each year an annual summary of all 4-H participation and individual project records are added to the portfolio. It is recommended that these materials be kept in a 3-ring binder with the most recent year in the front of the book. While 4-H members officially start their portfolios when they enter grade 3, Cloverbud records may be kept in the back of the book.
