Leader Recognition & Awards
4-H would not be sustainable without the dedication from volunteers in the community. Their time and compassion are truly appreciated. All 4-H leaders, volunteers, members, and their families are invited to attend the recognition program. The recognition is a time for everyone to come together and celebrate, reflect, and recognize those who have given so much to the 4-H program.
Annual awards are presented to volunteers at the annual Achievement Recognition Program in October. Please consider nominating a volunteer as a way to recognize them for the work they have done. Nominate a volunteer today!
