We got to celebrate Innovation Day during National 4-H Week today by visiting Goosehead Joe's "Come on Home" program that airs on Wednesdays on Pickup Country 104.9.
Special thanks to our two 4-Hers, Linkoln and Willow, for joining us to talk a little about what 4-H means to them and some of their experiences. Another special Thanks to Joe Crawford and Ethan Moore for allowing our youth to have this learning platform with hands-on participation. Take a listen!!!

This opportunity is too cool for the youth to not participate. Age requirement is 10-19. Youth can work individually or in groups. Agent can help the youth with topics and resources.
