What can you do through 4-H?
4-H Youth in Ellis County have the opportunity to participate in organized projects with learning opportunities. These projects range from the traditional livestock and food and nutrition, to the non-traditional photography, shooting sports, consumer decision making, and public speaking. The opportunities don't stop there! Because 4-H is all about learning, anything that can help a child learn leadership, citizenship, or other life skills can be designed as a 4-H project. Just see your county extension agents for assistance in designing your personalized 4-H plan.
