“Seeing County volunteers become certified 4-H Instructors, with all their energy and enthusiasm, then turning that energy into real 4-H development is a wonderful thing.”

Tennessee 4-H has partnered with the University of Tennessee Admissions Office to provide 4-H’ers from around the state with the Next Chapter Program. The Next Chapter Program is designed to help 4-H’ers to be successful in both college and career endeavors.

Mary Beth Antunes has turned a lifetime of 4-H into a family affair.

“The Loudon County 4-H livestock program is built on the foundation that Greer, along with her 4-H agents, helped lay. Any 4-H’er who has come through the livestock program in the last 10 or 15 years has been touched by Greer’s involvement.”

“4-H helped me experience a larger world. It provided me with lifelong friends and it led me to my career at TDA. I was just a little 4-Her from Rhea County. And I didn’t get it then. But I get it now.” 

Alex Crockett, who participated in the Fentress County 4-H program, was named one of the University of Tennessee's record-breaking 19 Fullbright Scholarship recipient.

Being a member of Tennessee 4-H sure has some benefits!

Over the last several years, Tennessee 4-H alumni, friends and members have had the opportunity to participate in an annual Titans 4-H Day, which includes a special ticket rate and tailgate before the game.

This year’s academic conference marked the 30th anniversary of the Tennessee Junior High Academic Conference.
