Time to Re-enroll in 4-H for 2016-17
    
Please DON'T FORGET to renew your 4-H enrollments online!  You will need to go to http://arkansas.4honline.com   log back on and "re-activate" your enrollment.  JUST LIKE WITH THE PAPER FORMS, THIS MUST BE DONE EVERY YEAR IN ORDER TO BE CONSIDERED A 4-H MEMBER.  Those not re-enrolled by November 30th will be removed from the email list until they have been re-enrolled.

If you do not have internet access at your home, you are more than welcome to come by the Extension Service office to use one of our computers.  The public libraries also have computers with internet access that you can use.     

Please take the time to correctly enter ages, grades, addresses (in order to receive the newsletters), etc.  Also, when you are prompted, please select the county club that you are a member of from the drop down box and select what leadership role (president, song leaders, etc.) you are currently holding (if any).  There is also a page to select your 4-H project.  

CHOOSING A PROJECT IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR OUR RECORDS.  You will also notice there is a tab to choose what district and state activities you have participated in and also one for awards you have received.  This is a great tool for keeping some of your records for you 4-H Journals.

If you have any questions, contact Cindy at 870-246-2281 or [email protected] .
