Annual Monroe County 4-H Year End Celebration: Achievement Night

This event, typically scheduled for early to mid-autumn, recognizes the accomplishments of 4-H members during the previous 4-H year, and provides an opportunity for peer members, volunteer leaders, families, and 4-H staff to celebrate those accomplishments.

Youth are recognized for project completion or advancement, community service, growth, leadership, and more. The purpose of recognition is to encourage and support the efforts of youth members in improving their knowledge and development of life skills, while promoting self-confidence.
