Examples are project clubs in horse, dog, livestock, marine science, aerospace, clothing, etc. Club meetings and programs usually are devoted to the club's project emphasis. Clubs Leadership for school clubs is usually provided by one or more teachers serving as 4-H club advisors. Teachers also may fill other leadership roles such as project and activity leaders. In some cases community volunteers may fill these roles.
School clubs operate under the same guidelines as community clubs.
The major difference is the club usually meets during school time, or immediately after school hours, and on school property. Special Interest Groups 4-H special interest groups are developed when special youth needs have been identified. Youth participants enroll in one or a series of learning experiences directed ata particular subject matter interest or need. Identification of the needs may be accomplished through the 4-H Advisory Committee, recommendations from schools, civic and citizen groups, etc. Such a member would enroll in projects and carry out project work under the counsel of an adult advisor or a parent.
