A Note From Miss Caitlyn
Dear Lincoln, Logan & McPherson County 4-H Families,
This is my favorite time of the 4-H year! I love seeing the excitement 4-Hers and their families have getting their projects entered and ready for fair. 4-H enrollment, livestock affidavits, state fair nominations, YQCA, and horse ID's are all due TODAY. If you are unsure if you have everything turned into our office, give us a call. Exhibitor letters will be sent out after the fair entry deadline on July 1st. We are only 38 days days away from fair!! Plan ahead and get those projects done ahead of time. Our summer workshops still have some openings. Have fun and get a 4-H project done at the same time! We would love to see the exhibit hall full and showcasing all the work the youth in our area have done throughout the year. I am looking forward to a great fair. Here's to making the best better together in 2024!
Feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns,
Miss Caitlyn

4-H Volunteers
Hello Volunteers,
If you have submitted an online enrollment for 4-H Volunteer but have not received an approved enrollment email then there is still things that need completed before you are able to help with any 4-H related event, program, workshop, etc. We have sent reminders to emails with what you all need to complete but we thought we would try this next since we are getting down to the wire on deadline for approval. Some need to complete the screening process through DHHS still and also the Volunteer Orientation videos. If you are wondering if you still need to complete something or need help getting to one of these please contact the office so we can help you get this completed!
