Graves County 4-H Celebrates National 4-H Week

Author: Kelsey Chadwick

Planning Unit: Graves County CES

Major Program: Leadership

Plan of Work: Developing Youth and Adult Leaders in the Community

Outcome: Initial Outcome

Graves County 4-H teen and adult leaders helped celebrate 4-H during National 4-H Week by hanging 4-H bows on over 40 local businesses. Teen leader Lexie Mathis also recorded a PSA and talked on the Breakfast Show with WYMC. Community response to the 4-H campaign was very favorable. The Extension Office handed out National 4-H Week bags to all youth who visited the office and encouraged youth to participate in a coloring contest and complete a "Opportunity Means to Me" sign. Youth leaders had an opportunity to build leadership skills and add to their achievement applications.
