One of our very own Amelia is representing Nelson County on State Teen Council this year preparing! Looking forward to Teen Conference 2026 tomorrow.

The State Teen Council is gearing up for an incredible week at Teen Conference! Today, the Kentucky 4-H Foundation Board had the opportunity to share lunch and spend time getting to know these outstanding young leaders. Their passion, leadership, and dedication to Kentucky 4-H are truly inspiring and remind us why we continue working to create meaningful opportunities for 4-H youth across the Commonwealth. We can’t wait to see all they accomplish this week and beyond! 💚🍀
