Summer 4-H Project Day
Saturday, June 10th, 2023
8:40 - 11:50am
Green County Fairgrounds, 2600-10th Street, Monroe, WI

The purpose of this day is to actively engage our 4-H members (3rd & older) in project-based learning through hands-on activities. This is NOT necessarily a “make-and-take” event, where participants should expect to leave with a completed fair project. Rather, we want to engage youth in exploring their SPARKS, while building project knowledge and skills they can go home and apply, making their best projects better.

8:40 – 9:00am Check-in
9:00 – 9:50am Session 1
10:00 – 10:50am Session 2
