BALLICO, Merced County. A community 4-H meeting is listed for Tuesday, December 15, 2026, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., at the Ballico Veterans Memorial Building, 11305 Ballico Avenue, according to the Ballico-Cressey School District’s December events calendar.

What is confirmed?

The school calendar identifies the date, time and venue under the title “4-H Meeting.” That listing does not establish whether the meeting is open to all visitors, which specific projects will be discussed, whether prospective members can sign up, or whether a fee is required. Families should verify those details with the responsible 4-H organizers or district office in advance.

Why local youth programs matter

4-H programs often provide youth development through agricultural, science, leadership and community projects. Ballico’s location within an agricultural region makes clear public information about youth activities useful for local families. This report does not claim that the meeting announces a new grant or special initiative.

Other December dates on the school calendar

The district also lists holiday programs in mid-December and an early dismissal on December 18, followed by a winter break beginning December 21. Families should check the calendar for specific campus times and childcare arrangements. Some recurring calendar entries may continue appearing during school vacations; they should not override an explicit school closure notice.

Where to verify

Refer to the official December calendar or contact the district at (209) 394-9400 for information on the listing. The Veterans Memorial Building is the venue identified by the organizer, not evidence that the school itself runs the 4-H program.
