Thanks to all who joined us for the 2020 Indiana 4-H Leadership Summit - either in person or virtually!
The 2020 Indiana 4-H Leadership Summit was a combination of a virtual and in-person experience. The Summit offered high quality educational sessions presented virtually via Zoom by experts from around the state. Youth and Adult 4-H Volunteers gathered in-person at host sites to participate in the hands-on activities.
Michelle Cummings was the Summit keynote and capnote speaker. Michelle is well known for her ability to actively engage an audience virtually or in-person. Michelle led us in several activities that you can use with your own 4-H groups!

Also during the Summit, the accomplishments of some of our outstanding youth and adult 4-H Volunteers were recognized!
