Welcome
The Cedar River Rascals 4-H club is excited to welcome you. The mission of 4-H is to empower young people to reach their full potential, working, learning, and having fun along the way. 4-H offers many possible projects. A given 4-H club may participate in one or more of these projects. Our club focuses primarily on cats. You don’t need a pure-bred cat to join us. Most of our members have a just a regular old household pet (or two or three or…well, you know how it is).
4-H Activities
Cat Shows
Our members participate in several cat shows per year. Members in 3rd grade and later can show their cat in the show. Younger members can attend to gain experience. Members learn cat care, presentation skills, self discipline, and more by participating.
Crafts
Our members enjoy participating in a variety of crafting projects. Crafts they have created may be entered in the county and state fair if desired.
