Georgia 4-H turned Atlanta green at this year's Georgia 4-H Day at the Capitol🏛️. This program provides the opportunity for 4-H youth to experience the legislative process, meet with their elected officials (thank you Representative Jaclyn Ford), and learn the importance of being civically engaged. In a record turnout, Georgia 4-H had over 800 4-H'ers, staff, and state officials in attendance. We would like to thank Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation for their generous sponsorship of this event!

A huge congratulations to every competitor and coach for the hard work and dedication that made these results possible. Your commitment and teamwork shone through in every event. Here’s to many more successes on the range—way to go, team!
Growing up in 4-H is one of my proudest achievements! One of my favorite events by far was District Project Achievement. This past weekend Cook County took 16 student to Rock Eagle to compete in a competition that build leadership, communication, and broadens the horizon for many aspects of life. (Needless to say I am very proud of them all)
One of the traditions we used to do in my home county (Ware) was to take a picture at a very specific tree by the Rock Eagle Mound. When the tradition started in 2016, I was to young to participate, however I got to see my brother and sister both grow through pictures at that same tree. When I got older I was finally able to take my picture at that tree. That spot has seen me lose and seen me win but through it all it has shown many Ware County 4-Hers the importance of growth and development. Now all that remains is remnants of a once well defined tree but it represents the development of youth in this amazing program. The tree shows that although we as studentsdents grow up and eventually out of 4-H the place we shared stays the same and it drives home the ideal of us growing in 4-H I am happy to have brought this tradition to my new county home.
Keep making 4-H shine Cook County! Y’all are doing awesome!🍀
