What Redwood 4-H does
Monthly Community Club Meetings
Join us for announcements, presentations, guest speakers, discussions, games, snacks and time for families to meet and socialize.
Elected youth officers run the club meetings, learning valuable parliamentary procedures, organization and leadership skills. The meetings have a theme and consist of ice breakers, Business, Program, Project Reports, Service Project, Recreation and Refreshments that the youth officers plan for each club meeting at their Officer Meetings.
Projects
Projects are smaller groups of 4-Hers that typically meet once a month to learn by doing and acquire skills around the project's topic. Redwood 4-H offers many Projects, catering to youth with all kinds of skills and interests. Once per year, each project brings the snacks to one Club Meeting.
Socials, Service Projects and Workshops
We hold two potlucks and we have service projects to give back to the community. We will be adding more socials and single day workshops this year so youth have more learning opportunites and families have more time to connect. We're planing county fair project days for time to make and learn how to submit items into the Alameda County Fair.
Fundraising
Sees Candy fundraising sale in the fall.
Annual holiday potluck and auction where each Project contributes items for the auction.
Members volunteer for a shift at the 4-H Cake Booth during the Alameda County Fair.

We're looking for more Project Leaders and Co-Leaders to offer additional Projects
Being a Project Leader is a great way to spend time with your kid(s) and make a meaningful impact on your community. Do you have any talents, hobbies, or things you want to learn that you could teach to youth? Does your kid have any interests for a Project that you could lead with them? Would you like to work with another Co-Leader to start a new project? From Geocaching and Tabletop Games to Cooking and Photography, there are projects that fit any level of expertise. Some projects have guides to help you get started or you can create a brand new Project. Learn more on our Volunteer page.
