Project Guides
New project guides are coming! Why did we condense the list? The shorter list of projects: ● Makes the choices less overwhelming
â—Ź Allows youth to explore a range of sparks within a project
â—Ź Offers curriculum and resources that support youth in the project
â—Ź Is a closer match with fair exhibit offerings
Where’s the “x” project? How do I find it?
All past project areas are still part of 4-H; they may be under one of the new project areas. If you don’t see a project that you have signed up for in the past, check the listings at the back of the 4-H Project Guide. You will find a list of past project areas with the new project areas. If you still don’t see what you are looking for, there is a Self-Determined project in each project grouping; you can choose a unique project to explore.
How do I know if I’m getting the right grouping/project heading?

Adult Volunteer Updates
We’re getting excited for the 2025-26 4-H year — and we’ve got a few updates to share with our volunteers before re-enrollment opens in September.
đź—“Â 4-H Online Updates:
The 4-H Online system will be going through its annual year-end processing during the weekend of August 29th.
âś… Updated Volunteer Training Process:
This year, when you log in to re-enroll, you'll be able to complete your 2025-26 Volunteer Training right in your 4-H Online profile — no extra links or websites needed!
🔍 Background Checks:
Background checks are required every two years. If you're due, 4-H Online will prompt you to start the process when you re-enroll. After you submit your enrollment, keep an eye on your inbox for an email from HireRight to complete your background check. (Be sure to check your spam folder.)Â
đź“…Â Important Deadlines:
 According to our updated Wisconsin 4-H volunteer re-enrollment policy:
Enrollment is due by November 1.
Complete your training and background check (if needed) by December 1.
These steps are required for you to be an approved volunteer. If they're not completed on time, you will not be allowed to lead programming with 4-H youth until everything is up to date.
We truly appreciate your commitment to creating safe, positive spaces for our youth. Getting your re-enrollment done early helps make sure all our programs are supported by approved, ready-to-go volunteers like you!
