The Campbell County 4-H Council is hosting a fundraiser on Thursday, September 24th from 2pm-5:30pm at the Extension office in Highland Heights. The money raised will be used to help with the Recognition Night’s awards, fashion show, bike rodeo, 4-H camp, scholarships, and much more.

What is 4-H?!

4-H is the largest youth organization in the world!

What do the four H's stand for-
Head-
4-H challenges you to think and make decisions, both for yourself and as a member of a group. You will discover new ways to do things and different ways of dealing with everyday challenges. 4-H is big on self-discipline, responsibility, initiative, and leadership. You will become a positive force in todays world.
Hands-
In 4-H, you learn skills that you can use for the rest of your life. You wont just talk about it, you will actually get your hands on it, learn by doing. Members choose from about 100 different skills everything from bicycle safety to cooking to computer technology to veterinary science. 4-H often helps members discover interests that lead to rewarding careers.
Heart-
It can be tough growing up today. To sort out their ideas and emotions, 4-H members often talk to club leaders and to each other about what matters to them.
4-H gives you a chance to become friends with other young people and caring adults. It is about building character, accepting people who are different, and making your community a better place to live.
Health-
Being healthy means feeling good; doing your best to balance school, friends, and family; and making the best choices. 4-H focuses on developing healthy lifestyles and understanding what happens when you make unhealthy choices.
