Our State 4-H Board of Directors have planned a fun event that includes workshops along with opportunities for community service and recreation including our district assembly, a huge dance, and a performance by Georgia 4-H’s very own Clovers & Company!

If your 4-H’er would like to attend, please send Mrs. Kasey an email at kcreid@uga.edu before 12:00 PM on Wednesday, November 26, and she can get him/her registered online. She will send you an email confirming that your 4-H’er has been registered.
