4-H Day at the Capitol
4-H Day at the Capitol

Georgia 4-H turned Atlanta green at this year's Georgia 4-H Day at the Capitol??. This program provides the opportunity for 4-H youth to experience the legislative process, meet with their elected officials (thank you Representative Jaclyn Ford), and learn the importance of being civically engaged. In a record turnout, Georgia 4-H had over 800 4-H'ers, staff, and state officials in attendance.?We would like to thank Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation for their generous sponsorship of this event!


Cook 4-H Southwest DPA Group

Growing up in 4-H is one of my proudest achievements! One of my favorite events by far was District Project Achievement. This past weekend Cook County took 16 student to Rock Eagle to compete in a competition that build leadership, communication, and broadens the horizon for many aspects of life. (Needless to say I am very proud of them all)

One of the traditions we used to do in my home county (Ware) was to take a picture at a very specific tree by the Rock Eagle Mound. When the tradition started in 2016, I was to young to participate, however I got to see my brother and sister both grow through pictures at that same tree. When I got older I was finally able to take my picture at that tree. That spot has seen me lose and seen me win but through it all it has shown many Ware County 4-Hers the importance of growth and development. Now all that remains is remnants of a once well defined tree but it represents the development of youth in this amazing program. The tree shows that although we as studentsdents grow up and eventually out of 4-H the place we shared stays the same and it drives home the ideal of us growing in 4-H I am happy to have brought this tradition to my new county home.

Keep making 4-H shine Cook County! Y’all are doing awesome!?
