From rabbits to robots, the local 4-H youth program is once again offering courses to students.

4-H, part of the CSU Extension program in Clear Creek County, continues to grow after its launch three years ago. 4-H offers courses for kids on everything from raising pet rabbits and scrapbooking to leather craft and sewing, and children ages 5 through 7 can explore a variety of topics over the course of the year.

It also operates the 4-H high school robotics club, summer camps, workshops and after-school programs in coordination with the rec center.

The Over the Clover 4-H Club, geared to students ages 5 to 18, has seen enrollment double to 30 over the past year, despite also seeing a decrease in its budget.
