Youth in Elliott County are learning that being active doesn't just take place in the gym! Elliott County has partnered with Rowan, Morgan, and Magoffin County 4-H to explore the outdoors and learn valuable life skills such as teamwork, leadership, and communication skills while enjoying nature. These participants have had the opportunity to hike trails in two different counties and are looking forward to kayaking and an overnight camping trip.
