Join 4-Hers across the nation as we celebrate National 4-H Week October 4-10! Every year, National 4-H Week sees millions of youth, parents, volunteers, and alumni come together to celebrate the many positive youth development opportunities offered by 4-H. The theme for this year’s National 4-H Week, Opportunity4All, is a campaign that was created by National 4-H Council to rally support for 4-H Youth Development and identify solutions to eliminate the opportunity gap that affects 55 million kids across America.
Scott County 4-H and its nearly 450 4-Hers and volunteers will observe National 4-H Week this year by highlighting all of the great opportunities 4-H offers. Visit Scott County 4-H on Facebook or 4-h.org to learn more about 4-H.
