Cochise County 4-H

Cochise County 4-H To improve lives, communities and the economy by inspiring the next generation of leaders, inventors, entrepreneurs and problem solvers . . . transforming.

4-H gives youth an edge for lifelong success by offering numerous opportunities to develop leadership, responsibility, citizenship and other life skills.

4-H helps develop competent, caring and actively engaged citizens who strengthen Arizona communities. Through our research-based curriculum and university ties, 4-H opens a world of possibilities to youth and their parents who want to explore a

wide range of interests β€” from aerospace to gardening to dog care to robotics to horse to just about any project you can imagine! The University of Arizona Cooperative Extension of Cochise County has been serving area residents since 1914 through educational programs. We represent a unique three way partnership of the United States Department of Agriculture, the University of Arizona and Cochise County to provide local citizens access to the Land Grant University System. Our roots in communities help us understand local needs and put university expertise and connections where they can make a difference – improving lives and communities.

πŸŒπŸ‡―πŸ‡΅ Host a Japanese 4-H Youth This Summer! πŸ‡―πŸ‡΅πŸŒ

The Arizona 4-H Youth Exchange Program is looking for welcoming families to host a Japanese delegate from July 23 – August 16!

As a host family, you'll share your everyday life, traditions, and community while building lifelong friendships and helping a young person experience American culture firsthand. This is a cultural exchangeβ€”not a vacation programβ€”so delegates simply want to be part of your family's daily activities.

βœ… Daily life focus, not tourism
βœ… Families with youth/teens can apply
βœ… Full 4-H program support provided
βœ… Welcome and departure events included

This year’s delegates enjoy activities such as baseball, music, reading, science, nature, animals, basketball, and more. Hosting is a rewarding opportunity to bring the world to your home while helping young people develop global understanding and friendships.

πŸ“… Hosting Dates: July 23 – August 16

A HUGE thank you and shoutout to Sierra HinkHouse, a dedicated 4-H member from Double Adobe, for planning and coordinating all the details for our Beef Clipping Clinic! Your hard work, leadership, and dedication helped make the event a tremendous success, and we truly appreciate everything you did behind the scenes to make it happen.

We would also like to give a very special THANK YOU to Houston Klump for coming out and sharing his knowledge and skills with our 4-H youth. Houston did an outstanding job teaching tips and tricks on how to properly wash and clip cattle, and our members learned so much from the hands-on experience. We are incredibly grateful for the time, effort, and encouragement you gave to our youth.

Thank you to everyone who attended and helped support this great learning opportunity for our 4-H members. Events like these would not be possible without amazing volunteers, families, and community support!

We’re excited to share that Houston will also be joining us for Livestock Day on June 18th β€” we hope to see everyone there!
