Happy June and Happy Graduation!

We are proud of all of our 4-H members for finishing the school year strong. We are especially proud of our 10 graduating seniors as they reach this exciting milestone!

The last 12 years may have seemed like they would never end but look at all you have accomplished along the way. Through your hard work, dedication, and perseverance, you have earned scholarships, secured job opportunities, developed valuable skills, and made a lasting impact on your communities and the people around you.

As you begin the next chapter of your journey, remember that the lessons learned, friendships made, and experiences gained through 4-H will continue to serve you well for years to come.

Congratulations, Class of 2026! We are excited to see where your future takes you and are proud to have been part of your story.

As summer gets underway, we also have several exciting opportunities ahead. Be sure to mark your calendars for CL2NI 4-H Camp Teen Training on June 11, STAC June 22–25, and the Sheep & Goat Weigh-In on June 26. We look forward to seeing many of you at these upcoming events!
