Indiana University Collegiate 4-HClub's Committees
We encourage each of our members to participate on a committee! Club committees help plan the club's events, programs, future, and keep the club going. Joining a committee allows a member to work with a smaller group of individuals, provide leadership within the club.
We have several committee chair openings for 2007! Come to the first club meeting on September 5, to see which leadership position may be right for you!
