Originally named Orangevale 4-H, Valley Oak 4-H was established in 2014 to fill a need for positive youth development within our community. Our goal is to work together and create a family environment. We changed the name to Valley Oak in 2022 to better represent our membership area. We ask for parent involvement, supporting the youth and the club in a positive manner.  We understand the commitment level and interests are different for each family. If you choose to be a part of Valley Oak 4-H  we ask you do so with a positive attitude embracing the 4-H way!

4-H Creed
I believe in 4H ​club work for the opportunity it will give me to become a useful citizen.
I believe in the training of my head for the power it will give me to think, plan and to reason.
I believe in the training of my heart for the nobleness it will give me to be kind, sympathetic and true.
I believe in the training of my hands for the ability it will give me to be helpful, skillful and useful.
I believe in the training of my health for the strength it will give me to enjoy life, resist disease and to work efficiently.
I believe in my country, my state and my community and in my responsibility for their development.
In all these things I believe, and am willing to dedicate my efforts to their fulfillment.
