The 4-H year is Oct. 1–Sept. 30 and, since it is a new 4-H year, all 4-H members and volunteers must re-enroll for the 2020–2021 4-H year (even if you just enrolled in August or September). New members and fair projects may be updated through June 15. You are strongly encouraged to re-enroll by April 1 or you may miss out on communications such as NEBLINE, email reminders, etc.!
The website to enroll or re-enroll is https://ne.4honline.com.
The process is easy and only takes a few minutes per member or volunteer. Only parents/guardians may enroll 4-H members. Each 4-H household will need to initially set up a profile in which the 4-H youth and/or volunteers in the household will be added. There is no fee to enroll in 4-H in Lancaster County.
NOTE: Health information is optional. You DO NOT need to complete this portion of the online form unless your child is planning to attend an overnight camp or campus event.
More details and step-by-step instruction guides with pictures are at http://lancaster.unl.edu/4h/club. If you have questions about the process or need access to a computer, call Heather Long at 402-441-7180.
PROJECTS: When signing up for individual projects — note the abbreviations for the project areas. We have added the abbreviations to the 4-H Project List at http://lancaster.unl.edu/4h/club/ProjectList.pdf to help you locate an individual project. For example, you will find “Sketchbook Crossroads” under C&FS which stands for Consumer and Family Science instead of under ‘S’ or under ‘Art.’
INDEPENDENT MEMBERS: 4-H members enrolling as independent need to select “Lancaster Independent” under “club.”
FFA MEMBERS: FFA members need to select TCA FFA, Crete FFA, Norris FFA, Raymond Central FFA or Waverly FFA under “club.”
VOLUNTEERS: 4-H leaders need to re-enroll. 4-H club organizational leaders are now able to view their 4-H club’s roster online, but must be enrolled for the current year and must contact Heather Long to set up a password.
For enrollment to be complete, at least one project needs to be selected as well as choosing a club (or “Lancaster Independent”).
