 Jackson County 4-H Clubs and Opportunities in 2025


We have lots of opportunities for Jackson County youth. We hope you will join a club or attend one of our programs to learn more about what we offer.

Ages: 5-18
Meetings: 2nd & 4th Thursday of each month from 5:00-6:00 p.m.

Gritty Triggers 4-H Club

In the Jackson County 4-H shooting sports club, Gritty Triggers, kids gain skills in the disciplines of rifle and shotgun, which are taught by certified instructors. 4-H shooting sports clubs benefit youth in many ways, including 1) promoting character and personal growth through safe, educational, and socially acceptable involvement in target shooting programs, 2) teaching safe, responsible use of firearms and archery equipment, including sound decision-making and self-discipline, and 3) promoting the highest standards of safety, sportsmanship and ethical behavior.

Open enrollment for Gritty Triggers for the 2025 season is open!

If you are interested in joining Gritty Triggers, please fill out this interest form. If you are already a member of 4-H, make sure to re-enroll in 4-H online! If you’re new, WELCOME! You can enroll in 4-H and become a member, too! Check out our “How to Join 4-H” Page.

Ages: 8-18
