Youth and adults will learn about two exciting 4-H opportunities: the Portfolio Contest and the World of Work Contest. Participants will receive hands-on training in a fun, interactive way while learning how to build and showcase their skills.
Then, we'll split up! Adults will learn how to use the Beyond Ready Framework in their 4-H clubs to help youth develop real-world skills through everyday 4-H experiences. Meanwhile, youth will jump into a fun, hands-on activity where they can put those skills into practice.
Whether you're new to Beyond Ready or ready to take your club activities to the next level, this night will give you practical tools, new ideas, and plenty of opportunities to learn by doing. All are invited to register whether you are enrolled in 4-H or not. So invite your friends!
