4-H Youth Development
New Online Enrollment System
The new (and improved) online 4-H registration system is now live and can be accessed at:
https://4h.zsuite.org/
Returning families already have an account set up in the system using the same email address as before. You will need to select “Forgot Password” and enter that email address. Then follow the process to create a new login password and four digit security pin number. (If you have been active any time in the last 5 years, DO NOT CREATE A NEW ACCOUNT.)
New families will need to select “Sign Up” and then follow the prompts to establish the new family account.
A series of helpful tutorial helpsheets and videos for members/volunteers are shown below:
