Active Living Project 2024
The 4-H PEI Western Regional Council is hosting a series of active living themed activities from January to June 2024. Each of the 6 clubs in region has generously agreed to host one of the activities. Members can sign up for as many activities as they like, and all of the activities are free of charge to participate (exception being the cost to rent skiing/snowboardingequipment if needed).
If a member participates in at least 4 of the activities they can also count their participation as a 4-H project for this year. It is the members responsibility to keep track of their activities and document their participation on the Project Record Page provided below. The Project Record Page needs to be on display at your club's Achievement Day (in your Member Portfolio Binder) to earn completion for this project.

This project involves lots of volunteers and planning so if you RSVP for an activity please do the volunteers the courtesy of notifying if you can no longer make that activity for some reason.
