Jr. Leaders
Pulaski County Junior Leaders is a 4-H county project and club for 4-H members in Grades 7-12. Junior Leaders are youth volunteers who accept their responsibility to represent the Pulaski County 4-H Youth Development Program with dignity and pride by being positive role models for younger 4-H members. They assist Adult 4-H Leaders with their local 4-H Club meetings, organize several community service events, and help with project check-in and judging at the fair.
