🍀 Washington County Celebrates National 4-H Week! 🍀
Washington County 4-H members had the honor of attending the Washington County Board of Commissioners weekly meeting to present the official National 4-H Week Proclamation, recognizing October 4–10, 2026, as National 4-H Week in Washington County!
Representing Washington County 4-H and helping present the proclamation were Jerika Mathes, Lydia Shupe, Will Flanagan, and Brooke Mitchell. Washington County 4-H President Jerika Mathes officially proclaimed National 4-H Week and encouraged our community to recognize the significant impact 4-H continues to make by empowering youth with the skills they need to lead for a lifetime.
This year’s National 4-H Week theme, “Beyond Ready,” celebrates how 4-H prepares young people for the future by helping them build leadership, communication, decision-making, and life skills through hands-on experiences.
We appreciate the Washington County Board of Commissioners for recognizing National 4-H Week and supporting the positive impact 4-H has on youth, families, and communities throughout Washington County.
Throughout National 4-H Week, we are proud to celebrate our members, volunteers, families, community partners, and everyone who helps make Washington County 4-H possible.
🍀 Beyond Ready. Beyond Prepared. Beyond Expected. 🍀
