Washington County 4-H kicks off the 2025-2026 4-H year with a big announcement.  They are offering a new special interest club, the Wilderness Wanderers Club.    

Specialty clubs are unique because they focus each club meeting on that specialty topic. The Wilderness Wanderers Club is for youth who have a special interest in the outdoors, wildlife, and conservation. Topics to be covered include kayaking, ice fishing, star gazing, shed hunting and more. This club is open to 4th-12th grade students from across the county.  

They will meet the third Sunday of the month at 5 p.m. at Marr Park. Many meetings will be spent outdoors or on field trips for outdoor activities. There is a $40 club fee, and the Wilderness Wanderers will start September 21. The goal is to connect youth from across the county with similar interests in outdoor activities. 

Washington County 4-H has 21 4-H club options for youth 4th-12th grade and 11 clover kid club options for youth kindergarten-third grade. The new 4-H year begins in September so new members and returning members should get enrolled in 4hOnline for any of these clubs.
