National 4-H Week- October 4-10

National 4-H Week will take off with a speedy start on October 4, as the 4-H emblem makes its debut appearance in a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race! The well-known 4-H clover will be featured on the No. 24 DuPont Chevrolet driven by Jeff Gordon at Kansas Speedway that day. The placement of the 4-H clover on Jeff Gordans No. 24 Chevrolet was made possible through a generous donation by DuPont, a sponsor of both the No. 24 team and of 4-H.“ 4-H has been a leader among youth development organizations, enriching the lives of millions of young people for more than100 years,” said Gordon. “It is an honor to have such an iconic emblem featured on the DuPont Chevrolet and to provide such an exciting way to help the nation kick-off National 4-H Week.”
