-Robeson County 4-H Started a 4-H Challenge on Sunday. This is open to all county 4-H members and is marketed through all of our social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Remind). It is open to all current 4-H members in Robeson County (must have an active profile in 4-H Online).

Prizes will be awarded in each age division for first, second, and third places. as well as participation for Cloverbuds (5-7). We have an independent review committee that will go through all the entries for each day and let us know their thoughts. Please encourage your 4-H member(s) to participate.
