It feels like just yesterday we were at the county fair, but ENROLLMENT OPENS ON OCTOBER 15TH!!

We encourage you to enroll ASAP so you stay connected to the network of communication offered through 4-HOnline and this newsletter.

We had a very successful 4-H year last year and can't wait to see what the 24-25

4-H year has in store!!

Nebraska 4-H is hitting the road again for the Volunteer Road Show, a professional development opportunity for 4-H volunteers across the state. Join us for an evening to discover new opportunities for yourself and your 4-H youth, network with other 4-H volunteers in your community, and build your skills as a 4-H volunteer! Registration is $15 and includes a meal and all materials.

Positive youth development is the main focus of 4-H. Every effort is put into creating an experience where youth can learn and grow; preparing them for their future. Take time to read this article & be reminded of why this is such a vital program.
