Update from Miss Kate
Dear Lincoln, Logan & McPherson County 4-H Families,
A BIG congratulations goes out to our livestock judging team who represented Nebraska 4-H at the North American International Livestock Exposition in Louisville, KY earlier this week. The team finished 8th overall and took home some individual awards. We are proud of their accomplishments and want to thank Dr. Kelly Bruns for all of his work to help prepare them.
In other news, our online enrollment system is OPEN for the 2021-2022 4-H year. You can find the link and instructions below.
Sincerely,
Miss Kate
