This annual event brought together over 100 junior high delegates
and chaperones for a weekend of fun and educational programming. The
conference was planned and organized by the Illinois State 4-H Youth
Leadership Team.
As a participant at this junior high conference, delegates develop
their leadership skills, meet and interact with youth across the
state, take part in community service, and view state leadership
opportunities in action while networking with the State 4-H Youth
Leadership Team.
When asked what they would take away from the conference, Starasta
stated she “learned activities to strengthen her leadership skills
and about future opportunities in the Illinois 4-H program. Starr
said he “enjoyed meeting new friends and the nutrition activity of
making fruit smoothies by riding a bike.”
