The highly acclaimed program features interactive hands-on activities, public speaking contests and fun and educational workshops.

Participants will be inspired by professional speakers, community leaders and Virginia State 4-H Ambassadors. The cost is $5 per participant. T-shirts may be available for an additional fee.
