New Members

New members may enroll at any time during the year!!

• However, we do encourage all enrollments, new and previous members, to be done before April 15th. All enrollments must be done in the 4HOnline website.

The 4HOnline system only allows 1 account per family. That account uses one person’s email address to log in as a family. Once you login, each member in your family will have an individual profile. These profiles can be updated and changed independently from one another as necessary. So, if you are a family that already has a login to 4HOnline, but want to add the newest member of your family, you DO NOT need to create another login, just another profile. You can make as many member profiles as you need under your family login.

Youth Growth Within 4-H

Cloverbuds: Youth in grades K-2. Cloverbuds are enrolled solely in Cloverbud projects.

Explorers: Youth in grades 3. It is meant to allow kids to try a variety of project areas and to exhibit a variety of projects at the fair. Youth in grades 3 are required to take exploring as a project in 4HOnline .

Members: Youth in grades 4 and up participate as regular members.

** Grade is determined by registration into the school district during the 4-H enrollment period. When a child exhibits at the fair, they are enrolled under the grade that they just completed, not the grade they will be entering in the Fall after the fair.

Getting started

1. To get started with the re-enrollment process, log into 4HOnline with your family email and password.
2. On the family home screen, click on the orange button labeled Continue to Family.
3. On your Member/Volunteer list, find the family member you wish to re-enroll and click on Edit next to their name.

The 4HOnline system only allows 1 account per family. That account uses one person’s email address to log in as a family. Once you login, each member in your family will have an individual profile. These profiles can be updated and changed independently from one another as necessary. So, if you are a family that already has a login to 4HOnline, but want to add the newest member of your family, you DO NOT need to create another login, just another profile. You can make as many member profiles as you need under your family login.

Re-Enroll

1. At the bottom of the next screen, click on the button for Enroll for 2023-2024.
2. If the youth is over 17 years old, a box will appear asking if you wish to enroll as a youth or an adult. If the youth is graduating from 4-H and wants to continue as an adult leader, then choose Enroll As Adult, otherwise select Enroll as Youth.
3. You will now see the Personal Information that you entered when you first enrolled. Look over the information and make any corrections.  If the youth was in 12^th grade last year, you must select the grade for this year, either Post High School Education or Not in School.  When you are done, click on Continue.
4. Next is the Additional Information screen where you will need to accept the agreements and answer the Photo Release and Accommodations questions. Click Continue when done.
5. The Health Form for members is optional at enrollment, but you could be asked to complete it in the future if you attend any events that require one. Click Continue when done.
6. If you are an adult volunteer and see the Volunteer Screening page, then it has been 4 years since the last time a background check has been completed. You need to check over the answers to the questions and correct as needed.  This page will only appear every 4 years.  Click Continue when done.
7. On the Participation -> Club screen, confirm the correct club is listed. If you serve in a volunteer role (but not as a project leader) click on Edit and select the volunteer type.  Click on Update to save the change.  Click on Continue when done.
8. On the Participation -> Projects screen, confirm all the projects you are enrolled in are listed.
