As an approved Wyoming 4-H Volunteer you can take on a variety of roles in the 4-H program.

Project Volunteer – Coordinates and teaches members within a specific project area, such as photography,
foods, or beef. 4-H volunteer project leaders are the “backbone” of 4-H.

Club Volunteer – Provides overall 4-H club leadership. Also coordinates members, parents, and the involvement of other leaders. 4-H Club Leaders can be an individual, a team, or a group of people that have specific roles that fulfill the 4-H Club Leader responsibilities.

Activity Volunteer – Directs activities, such as fund raising, recreation, community service, and promotion. Members learn through involvement in the activity.

Coach – Coordinate and teaches members who are planning to participate in a contest or event.
Committee Member – The 4-H program runs well when much of the work is done by committees of youth and adults who have interest in a particular area. As an approved volunteer you can serve as a voting member or in leadership of a committee to help plan a particular part of the 4-H program.

Council Member – Many county programs have 4-H councils that serve in advisory roles to assist the 4-H educator in providing the 4-H experience. The County 4-H Council helps to fundraise, advocates for the 4-H program, can coordinate county level events, and overall supports the 4-H work in the county. The County Council does not serve in a policy making role.

Chaperone – Many of our events require our youth to stay overnight, like camps, contests, and trips. We have very strict policies for those volunteers staying overnight with you. Adults who chaperone:
• Must be 21 years of age or older.
• Need to participate in an additional chaperone specific training.
• There should be at least 2 deep leadership at overnight events.
• The Wyoming 4-H program requires at a 1:10 adult to youth ratio at all 4-H events.
