Updates to Review:

• Officer Requirements

    • Age Requirements for President and District Council Delegate. 

      1. • • • Positions that represent Young County 4-H at the district level in activities such as Leader Lab, where only senior 4-H members are eligible to participate, should be taken into consideration during the council officer election process.

               • TBD: In the future should age requirements for the two positions above  be adopted and no seniors 4-H members who meet the position requirements apply, then council will open nominations to intermediate members followed by junior members. Clover kids are not eligible to participate on County Council.
