As we prepare to head back to school tomorrow, we're taking a moment to look back on a fall break filled with fun, growth, and service for Newton County 4-H youth! ๐Ÿ‚

From making new friends, trying new activities, and creating lasting memories at 4-H Cloverleaf Conference, to giving back during the Go Give Community Service Day, our youth spent their break learning, leading, serving, and having fun along the way.

Whether they were stepping outside their comfort zones, working together as a team, or making a positive impact in their community, these young people showed what it means to be a true 4-Hโ€™er. ๐Ÿ’š

We're proud of the way they embraced every opportunity and made the most of their fall break!

๐Ÿ€ National 4-H Week: Going Green in Newton County

What does it mean to "Go Green"?

For 968 Newton County youth, going green means saying yes to new experiences, new friendships, new challenges, and new opportunities.

It means stepping into the spotlight for the first time, trying a new project, serving the community, exploring future careers, developing leadership skills, attending camp, competing in contests, and discovering interests and passions along the way.

Every young person has a different 4-H story, but each one is part of a larger story of growth, confidence, and possibility.

As we celebrate National 4-H Week, we're proud of the many ways Newton County youth are choosing to Go Green and make the most of the opportunities available to them through 4-H.

๐Ÿ’š Now we want to hear from you! ๐Ÿ’š

How has 4-H reached you or your family?

Maybe it was a friendship, a camp experience, a leadership opportunity, a competition, a volunteer experience, or a skill that still benefits you today.

๐Ÿ€ Share your 4-H story in the comments and tell us what Going Green has meant to you!
