4-H is the Cooperative Extension system’s dynamic, informal, education program for today’s young people. The program partners the cooperative efforts of youth; volunteer leaders; state land-grant universities; state and local governments; 4-H foundations; and the Cooperative State Research, Educational and Extension Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Nebraska 4-H is comprised of youth ages 5-19 and adults. All partners are working to assist youth in developing knowledge, skills, and attitudes that will enable them to become productive and contributing members of society.
The Western Riders 4-H Club of Arnold has volunteer leadership with horses, beef, sewing, gardening, and shooting sports, but does support many other programs and curriculum. They are also participating in the Adopt-A-Highway program on four miles of Highway 40 south of Arnold.
The Western Riders meet once a month from September to April with weekly practices/working meetings through the summer. Youth are welcome to join and volunteer adult leaders are appreciated.
