Six members of the Calhoun County 4-H Teen Leaders participated in the club's community service project Saturday, December 11, 2004. The club members met at the Community Resources Building in Grantsville to wrap presents for the CRI Angel Tree recipients.

In addition, the 4-H Teen Leaders also supported the angel tree project by adopting an angel from the tree. The teen leaders provided gifts for a 2 year old boy on the angel tree.

4-H Teen Leaders is a club for older 4-Hers. It provides older 4-H members the opportunity to continue their four fold development through the 4-H program as well as opportunities to develop leadership skills.

4-H Teen leaders assist in planning 4-H camp activities and often help teach crafts or classes at camp. They also provide assistance with other county 4-H activities such as the Halloween party and "Up All Night."

Membership is open to anyone in 7th grade through age 21. The club meets on the 1st Wednesday of each month during the high school lunch period at Calhoun/Middle School.
