4-H Awards and Achievement Night

Achievement Night

Every year 4-H members, volunteers, and staff come together to celebrate the growth of our youth over the past year. The Annual Awards Event recognizes youth for their participation, individual growth, achievement, cooperation, and leadership. The purpose of recognition is to encourage and support the efforts of young people in learning to improve their knowledge and develop their life skills, while promoting self-confidence. This year our achievement night will be on October 5th from 1-3 PM in the 4-H Case Building at the Chenango County Fairgrounds.

Record keeping is a life skill 4-H has instilled in youth for generations. Please ensure to fill out the correct project record sheets for your youth's age group/project areas to be eligible for County Pins and other awards. These are available in the left menu under "Project Record Sheets"
