Future of 4-H Looks Bright for Washington County 4-H

The future of Washington County 4-H looks bright as an active group of 3rd grade Clover Kids celebrated their graduation during the 2022 Washington County Fair. This fall, they are all invited to join the Washington County 4-H program as 4th graders! Nineteen 3rd graders participated in the graduation ceremony where they received a special diploma and cap. Each graduate was announced by their Clover Kid club leader. This year, 31 3rd graders participated in the Washington County Clover Kid program.

Clover Kids are youth in grades Kindergarten through 3rd grade who traditionally meet once a month with their club to play games, experiment, craft, and explore in non-competitive ways. Washington County has nine Clover Kids clubs with more than 150 active members this past year.
