Southern Region 4-H Teen Leadership Conference

The Southern Region 4-H Teen Leadership Conference (SRTLC) is scheduled for September 20-23, 2018, at the Clyde M. York 4-H Center in Crossville, TN. This event is open to senior 4-H members (ages 14-18, grades 9-12).

SRTLC is an outstanding opportunity to help youth develop leadership skills, citizenship skills, and help them find opportunities to put those skills to use in their community. Plus, it is one of the best ways to meet 4-H’ers from other states and learn about their 4-H programs!  Georgia information for the conference is available at: georgia4h.org/srtlc/.  A flyer to promote the conference is attached and is also available on the site.

The Georgia cost is $230.00 per 4-H’er this year. Registration deadline is August 30th.
