4-H--Going Strong!!!
"The Stone County 4-H is one of the best youth educational programs in Stone
County", according to Trena Martin, Ben 4-H Leader.
Growing up has never been easy and don’t expect it to get any easier. 4-H
provides a compass to help navigate youth through life by providing educational
programs in community 4-H clubs, school and at home.
Stone County youth have participants in educational activities such as
Glogerm, Enviroscape, Healthy Diet/Healthy Eating, Wagon Master and many other
activities in our local schools.
Stone County 4-H youth also participated in a 2-day Campout, Livestock
Clinics, Gardening activities, Broiler BBQ Contest, County
Government/Citizenship, 4-H State Camps, Public Speaking, Forestry Workshop,
Photography, 4-H O-Rama and Recordbook activities.
Volunteers are essential to the successful delivery of 4-H programs to youth.
