Monthly Meeting Topics

Each month has suggestions for recreation, a ice breaker, community service, the flag ceremony, the inspirational quote of the month, and ideas for that month’s program. There are four years of suggestions provided. The monthly themes are meant to be cycled through again once the fourth year has been finished.

Set 1: Sept | Oct | Nov | Dec | Jan | Feb | March | April | May
Set 2: Sept | Oct | Nov | Dec | Jan | Feb | March | April | May
Set 3: Sept | Oct | Nov | Dec | Jan | Feb | March | April | May
Set 4: Sept | Oct | Nov | Dec | Jan | Feb | March | April | May

Installation Ceremony

These meeting inspiration topics are useful for club leaders to organize monthly club activities. Topic inspiration helps club leaders facilitate organized and fun monthly meetings for 4-H members. The officer installation activities provided creative ways to welcome new officers and teach them about their roles as officers in 4-H.

Download a ZIP file of AgriLife Extension logos (includes 4-H).

Guidelines for the use of the 4-H logo and green (PMS 347) can be found in the user documentation.
