EL DORADO COUNTY, Calif. - Head, Heart, Hands, Health. The 4-H Youth Development Program offers many fun and educational activities for its members and it is now available for youth in the South Lake Tahoe area.
The University of California Cooperative Extension (UCCE) Central Sierra servers Amador, Calaveras, El Dorado, and Tuolumne counties and 4-H is one of their programs. 4-H is America’s largest youth development organization empowering youth to learn skills that will stay with them for a lifetime. They offer educational learning experiences where young people (ages 5 years to 19 years old) can learn by doing.
