Positive Youth Development

Welcome to 4-H in Chemung County!  4-H programs are offered in a wide variety of formats and places in order to meet the interests and needs of the diverse families who live in our rural and urban communities. Explore our pages and then give us a call - we welcome youth aged 5 to 19 and adult volunteers to our programs! 4-H has something for everyone!

Covid-19 Updates

Chemung County is currently open with safety measures in place.

COVID-19 Waiver All Participants MUST Sign: CCE_4-H_-_Chemung_COVID_Assumption_of_Risk_FORM.pdf

We must be diligent in our efforts to prevent any spread of virus and remain consistent with the efforts both state and nationally.

Also know that, things can change and we have watched them do so time and time again. So, in all realm of possibility, Covid-19 could spike and we need to go back to virtual meetings again at any time.

Please know that though in-person programming is opening back up, you are not required to attend in-person activities and alternatives are also going to continue to be made available.

We ask that you assist us and our volunteers in adhering to rules, guidelines and to be patient with us all as we navigate the new normal.

Please contact me directly if you have any questions. We are still working somewhat remotely and from a variety of sites, please respond via email with a number and time I can reach you if needed. I will be happy to reach out to you.

Welcome Message

Dear Families,

Welcome to the Chemung County 4-H Program. We appreciate that you have chosen to become involved in a program that creates close bonds between members, their families, and leaders. As a member of the 4-H family, you will have an opportunity to meet new people, try new things, learn leadership, citizenship, and build life skills.

Chemung County 4-H has many amazing volunteers helping to make the 4-H program a success. However, your involvement in the 4-H program and 4-H projects is critical to your child’s success. Families help youth establish goals, work toward those goals, develop a sense of achievement and communicate effectively about what they have done. You do make a difference and we are glad to have you in our program.

Please don’t hesitate to call us at (607) 734-4453 if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Sasha Diederich
