Greetings!  Thank you for your interest in our virtual Sports Nutrition for Teens 4-H Club.  This club will meet online from 1/24/2021 to 3/28/2021 and will be led by faculty and staff members of the Maryland 4-H program.  This club is open to youth ages 12 -18.  

Although virtual activity clubs are new to Maryland 4-H, they provide all of the elements and opportunities that Maryland 4-H has offered youth members throughout its rich 100+ year history: hands-on learning,  connections with peers and caring adults, and an inclusive, safe environment.  

To participate in the Sports Nutrition for Teens 4-H Club virtual activity club, you will need to sign up for Maryland 4-H.  Enrollment for 2021 will open in early January.  When you enroll, you will be able to choose Sports Nutrition for Teens 4-H Club as the club you want to join.  You can also join other 4-H clubs you may be interested in, now or in the future!  The annual $10 enrollment fee gives you access to a full year of fun and enriching Maryland 4-H activities and events!

Please note that by completing this form you are just letting us know that you are interested in joining the Sports Nutrition for Teens 4-H Club virtual activity club.  You are not enrolling in Maryland 4-H.  A club leader will contact you to help you "officially" join 4-H and the club when enrollment is open in January 2021.  

Please complete a separate form for each youth member of your family who is interested in joining the club.  

Club Age Range: Youth ages 12 - 18
