Info about the Upton 4-H Club:
The Upton 4-H Club is part of Worcester County 4-H, located in Central MA. Although we're based in Upton, we have members from many surrounding towns, including Uxbridge, Northbridge, Douglas, Blackstone, Hopkinton, Millbury, Mendon, Framingham, Medway, Charlton ... pretty much all over!!
Our club began in September 2007, mainly focusing on Rabbits & Cavies. During our first year, our membership reached 26 youth members, ranging in age from 5 to 16, and 5 registered adult volunteers. As we prepare for the upcoming County Fair, a culmination of our first year, we look forward to lots of new and exciting adventures in the year to come, including the addition of 2 new interest groups: Gardening (see the new garden we planted in front of Memorial School, as a way of saying THANKS for allowing us to hold our meetings there!) and Nature & Wildlife (which will include fishing, hiking and archery) and LOTS of new members!
