Monroe County Junior Leaders

Missouri 4-H Leadership Project

Monroe County Junior Leaders is a county-wide project and more. County 4-H teens age 13 and up or at least 7th grade and enrolled in the Leadership Project are members of Junior Leaders. The Clover contains the 6 projects and their numbers in the Leadership category. We use 3 of them to separate Junior Leaders by 4-H age. They are 272, 281, and 282. Junior Leaders meet in club fashion and participate in community service and educational activities. A 4-H teen in Junior Leaders can expect their 4-H résumé to glow with the additional activities offered in Junior Leaders. At year-end Adult Advisors expect each Junior Leader to complete a project record form (doc or pdf) and submit up to 3 pages of photos outlining their leadership activities of the year. Junior Leader Advisors choose an outstanding 1st year Junior Leader or two and an award is given at Recognition Night yearly.
