Armstrong County 4-H
The 4-H slogan is “learn by doing.” 4-H is an educational program, so you are encouraged to try new things for yourself and to get involved in doing things you like to do. Then you can think and learn and apply what you learn to your life. You can make better decisions, gain new skills, develop self-esteem, give back to your community, and grow up to be a good citizen.

2012 County Council Awards
May 16 - July 2, 2012The idea for the County Council Awards program was conceived in 2006 by the 4-H State Council. In an effort to get Pennsylvania counties involved and persuade more of them to develop or enhance existing county programs, it was decided that there would be cash prizes awarded to the top three County Councils. Awards would be given based on standards set by state level faculty and staff in leadership development with 3rd place receiving $200.00, 2nd place receiving $300.00 and 1st place receiving $500.00. County Councils provide cohesion on the county level among the clubs and offer strong programming for the teen youth on all levels of the leadership ladder. -
