Trips and Awards for Older Youth Older youth are eligible for special award trips based on their work in their 4-H projects or activities on the club and county level. Many of these trips require the completion of a special application form detailing the member's work and activities in the 4-H program. Some trips may also require an interview conducted by the Iowa County 4-H Leaders Council members. Older youth are also eligible to apply for 4-H Ambassador positions.
All youth are eligible for special project awards based on their work in their project areas.
Special awards are also given to youth who have shown a lot of growth or leadership in those project areas. Out has traditionally been held at Folklore Village just east of Dodgeville. The evening's program is open to all 4-H parents, youth, and other family members, and includes a potluck dinner followed by an evening of entertainment and learning. There are many exciting ways you can be part of 4-H in Iowa County as an adult volunteer. Local clubs offer a variety of leadership opportunities.
