The deadline for state-level senior Nebraska 4-H Achievement Applications has been changed to Jan. 5 (previously Jan. 15). Senior applicants need to submit applications early to lancaster4H@unl.edu by Tuesday, Dec. 27 or sooner, so 4-H staff can review, give feedback and 4-H'ers can make changes prior to sending them on to the state competition.
The deadline for junior applications to Lancaster County 4-H remains on Jan. 3.
The Achievement Application has two versions: junior for ages 8–14 (county only) and senior for ages 15–18 (county and state). Lancaster County 4-H’ers who complete an Achievement Application and submit it to lancaster4H@unl.edu by the respective deadlines will be recognized at the Lancaster County 4-H Achievement Celebration and receive a $25 Activity Certificate.
Nebraska 4-H utilizes the senior application to select delegates for National 4-H Conference and 4-H Congress. The Nebraska 4-H Foundation utilizes the senior application for awarding scholarships. State-level applications must be emailed to 4HAchieves@unl.edu by Jan. 5.
