National 4-H Week is observed Oct. 4-10, 2020. Our theme for the week and for the 2020-2021 4-H Year is "Experiment With 4-H: There's Opportunity4ALL!"

Our Saline County 4-H program continues to grow and expand, even during these difficult times of COVID-19 and remote learning. Members and adult volunteers are busy living up to the 4-H motto, "To Make the Best Better."

There will be 4-H displays in various locations throughout Saline County in honor of National 4-H Week. Contact information is included in each display. Please call one of our 4-H Clubs or call Nancy at the University of Illinois Extension office at (618) 252-8391 to find out more about Saline County 4-H.

This week is a great time to recruit new members.

We encourage each 4-H member to wear your 4-H T-shirt to school or out and about this week. Tell a friend about 4-H and the projects you exhibited at the fair this year.

Invite a friend to attend your next 4-H Club meeting.
