Henry County trap shooters compete in 4-H Northwest District Qualifier GRIFFIN — As it has for more than 30 years, the Griffin Gun Club on Amelia Road hosted the 4-H Northwest District Qualifier for modified trap shooting on April 25.

Shoutout to our SAFE BB Team! 4 members competed at the District Qualifier and did so great! 1 member moved on to the State Competition were she made a 100 on her written test! We are so proud of this team and congrats to Vanessa for making it all the way to State 🏆

Yesterday was our annual District Poultry Judging competition. We had over 100 kids show up from surrounding counties to judge live chickens, eggs, chicken patties, and chicken parts. Henry county 4-H had its first full team in years! We are extremely proud of our kids representing Henry County!

Blown away by our unbeLEAFable County Council members who helped care for our Geraniums Monday 🌱
Today, we picked up MORE geraniums in the 8 inch pots! We have a ton of classic red, but we only have a limited amount of some of the colors!! Come support our 4-H’ers and get your geraniums for $12 🍀 We sell Monday through Friday 8am to 5pm until May 14th.
We will also have a booth selling at the Geranium Festival on May 16th

National Volunteer Appreciation Week! HUGE thank you to all the volunteers who make our programs possible and support Henry County 4-H! 💚 We are grateful for their time and energy throughout the year

Members of the Horse Club are enjoying equine activities at the Flint River Horseman's Association's Wildflower Round-Up. We took this opportunity to practice our horse judging skills as we prepare for the competition in June!

Public speaking can be nerve wracking! But Project Achievement makes it fun and allows middle and high schoolers to highlight their interests. Join us at the Extension Office on April 29th at 6pm for a Project Achievement interest and planning meeting called “Projects, Planning, and Portfolios, OH MY!”. 4-H Staff will go over what is expected and help youth start to plan out their project. This program is open for current 6th-11th graders and is free! Even if you’ve never participated in Project Achievement or 4-H, this is a perfect time to meet new people and learn a valuable skill. For more information or to RSVP for the meeting, please call our office at 770-288-8421. 🍀
