Please join the Delaware 4-H Family and many others on Saturday, October 3, 2026, for the induction of the eighth class of laureates into the Delaware 4-H Hall of Fame. This bi-annual event will be held at the Modern Maturity Center beginning at 6:00 p.m. Tickets are $60 and will include dinner, entertainment, and presentations of awards. This event is sponsored by the Delaware 4-H Foundation to honor people who were active and influential in Delaware 4-H. The legacy that these laureates have left, and in some cases continue to leave, is what makes Delaware 4-H a premier positive youth development program. On this evening, 17 of the pillars of Delaware 4-H will be honored. Please come out and celebrate their achievements.
