Once 4‑H, Always 4‑H 🍀
Calling all Charles County 4‑H Alumni—your story still matters, and your voice still inspires.
As we celebrate $4 for 4‑H, we invite you to create a short video or social media post sharing your answer to one simple question:
👉 What does 4‑H mean to you—then and now?
You might reflect on:

A skill or value you gained through 4‑H
A project, event, or leadership experience that shaped you
How 4‑H prepared you for college, career, or life
Why 4‑H continues to matter to you today

Your perspective shows our community how 4‑H builds lifelong impact beyond youth programs.
🎬 Share a short video
📸 Post a photo with a meaningful caption
📲 Tag or share with Kelly Bryant and/or Jeanne Williams during $4 for 4‑H Tuesday
Thank you for being part of the 4‑H legacy—and for helping inspire the next generation of leaders.

Egg-citing things are happening in our public schools around the county this week! Our first chick sighting comes from Dr. Mudd elementary school! Mt. Hope Nanjemoy is also reporting the start of hatching.

Our 4-H educator, Kelly, spent today at the Indian Head naval base working with the youth at the student age center. The youth made a craft of little elves and then sewed a gift for themselves or a family member, which was a scented eye warming patch.
