Happy Monday Everyone! It might be cloudy but things in the world of 4-H are spectacularly bright today. Want to take a quick moment to thank our 4-H Animal Science participants for making this past week so wonderful. You can read all about it on our blog. Also want to give a quick shoutout to our 4-H Families the Canady's, Norton's, and Underwood's. Each completed our 4-H Scavenger Hunt for National 4-H Week. We still have our virtual hunt on the app for those of you who would like to play.
On to the Top 4

Youth will learn to crochet, knit, and loom knit.
