Update from Miss Kate
Dear Lincoln, Logan & McPherson County 4-H Families,
We are celebrating our achievements of the past year and looking forward to all things 4-H in 2022. Our 4-H Online registration system isn't quite ready to accept enrollments for the new year. We will let everyone know when it is! It got an upgrade so things will look just a little different. We will have resources to help everyone navigate the system.
Sincerely,
Miss Kate
