Stoughton 4-H is focused on beef for the year

In 1950 the Rock Lake 4-H Grain Club came to life and in 1965-66 the Stoughton Crossroads Multiple Club came together. The clubs morphed into one and is the club it is today.

Jeryn Tanner is the general leader of the club and has held this position for seven years. Danielle Gibson is also a leader and Carolyn Chaytors is a volunteer.

They have six kids in the club, one intermediate, three juniors and two cloverbuds. The 4-H motto is “Learn to do by Doing,” and they work hard to keep this motto.

Kids ages six to 21 years may join 4-H and can join as many clubs as they choose.

Meetings are held at the Poplar Tree Inn once a month. Right now, they do not have a set night for meetings.
