4-H Roundup Memories Contest |
With the 100th State 4-H Roundup quickly approaching, it’s a great time to dust off scrapbooks and scroll through smartphone files for photos of fond memories – and possibly win a cash prize for your county 4-H Youth Development program at the same time.
“We want photos from anyone who has a memory of attending State 4-H Roundup in any capacity – as a club member, a chaperone, a volunteer leader or an Oklahoma State University Extension educator,” said Kristin Young, marketing coordinator for the Oklahoma 4-H Youth Development state office. “This is a great way to see how 4-H Roundup has changed over the years and to reflect on how 4-H has influenced so many lives.”
