Enrollment
How do we join and what are the costs?
STEPS FOR ENROLLING:
[1] Sign in to Zsuite:
https://4h.zsuite.org/ - Families New This Year: Use Sign Up button
[2] Enroll each member:
- Login to the Household Profile on Zsuite
- Add any members that do not yet have a profile.
- Click the enrollment button and complete steps for each member.
- For adults that do not lead a project, select "Other Volunteer" when asked for the adult role.
(Every family is highly encouraged to have at least one adult register as a 4-H volunteer.)
[3] Pay for enrollment or request fee waiver
LINK TO PAY: 2024-2025 Online Payment Form - Ventura Co 4-H (ucanr.edu)
FEE WAIVER: 2024-25 Fee Waiver Form - Ventura Co 4-H (ucanr.edu-)
Pay the registration fees online. The registration fees this year are $85 per youth and $28 for adult volunteers. DO NOT choose Adult $28 UNLESS you want to complete the Adult Volunteer Process to be a registered adult volunteer (you will need to complete online training and complete LiveScan Fingerprinting). 4-H Will not refund you and just paying the $28 does not qualify you to be an official volunteer- See additional steps below for Adult Volunteers)
{4} Pay annual club dues payment of $50 per youth paid by check directly to the club. These dues include a club T-shirt, notebook and pay for our community service project supplies, end of year celebration and end of year membership awards as well as other club activities, equipment, and supplies.
Note: (4-H is a volunteer-run program. We do not require our parents to volunteer during their first year; however, if you are thinking you might want to lead a project or be a chaperone/ volunteer that attends camps and other activities in the future, you may want to register yourself as well. If you register as an adult volunteer, because of new legislation there is an online training that is required. All volunteers receive training and are livescanned and background checked. If you want to simply have your child explore 4-H, then only register them. You are encouraged to attend a Community meeting to meet our membership to see if we are a good fit for your family prior to registering. Please note that 4-H is not a “drop off” program. Parents are required to attend all 4-H events and activities with their youth, or make arrangements with another 4-H parent to supervise your children.)
