🍀 Calling All 4-H Families: Pinal County Jr. Livestock Board Needs YOU! 🍀

Head, Heart, Hands, and Health, that's what 4-H is all about, and our Jr. Livestock Board depends on volunteers who live it. We have 3 open positions, and each one is a chance to give back to the same program that has given our youth exhibitors so much.

Positions Available: 🏆 Scholarship Superintendent (2 Yr Term) 🍖 Barbecue Chairman (2 Yr Term) 🎯 Contest Chairman (2 Yr Term)

If you're a 4-H leader, parent, alum, or community member who believes in youth development, hard work, and the value of the livestock project, we want your voice at the table. Your leadership helps our kids build the life skills that 4-H and FFA are known for, from responsibility to public speaking to sportsmanship.

Let your 4-H voice be heard. Learn more and apply here: https://pcjuniorlivestock.org/updates

Together, we grow our future, one 4-H'er at a time. 🌟
