  1. Review the “RESTARTING 4-H IN COOKE COUNTY” Guidelines.
  2. Fill out and submit the online Program Preparedness Plan Form before EACH meeting – preferably 2 weeks in advance.

The health and safety of all 4-H members, volunteers, parents, guests and staff is the top priority of Texas 4-H. To help reduce the risks associated with the spread of COVID-19, the following guidelines from the Texas Department of Health & Environment and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Texas A&M AgriLife Extension should be followed to protect yourself and others during 4-H Club Meetings and other 4-H programs. Please review these guidelines with your officer team, club leaders, members and parents.
