🌟 Senior Conference 2026 Recap 🌟
“Ease on Down the 4-H Road” was a weekend our Houston County 4-H’ers won’t forget anytime soon. 💚

Let’s be honest—the ⭐ 4-H Prom ⭐ stole the show. Everyone showed up dressed to the nines, all while enjoying an unforgettable dance.

But what made the weekend really special was the impact our youth made:

📚 Vivian led Literacy Leaders, where participants put together flashcards and reading wheels to support young readers.
💬 Eve and Jonathan led You Got This, giving teens a chance to record short, encouraging messages for others who might need a boost.

It was a great mix of fun, leadership, and meaningful moments, exactly what 4-H is all about.
