The deadline for state‑level senior Nebraska 4‑H Achievement Applications is Sunday, Jan. 5. Senior applicants need to submit applications early to lancaster4H@unl.edu by Thursday, Dec. 26 or earlier so that the 4‑H staff can review and give feedback on the applications before sending them on to the state competition.
The deadline for junior applications to Lancaster County 4‑H is Jan. 3.
The Achievement Application has two versions: junior for ages 8–14 (county only) and senior for ages 15–18 (county and state).
