State 4-H Council Elections

Each year, youth from across the state apply for the State 4-H Council. After a review of the applications and interviews with the applicants, a slate is created of youth who meet the qualifications of office. All candidates will be voted on during Missouri 4-H Week in late May/early June. All 4-H’ers 8-18 may vote for the Board of Directors and their respective Regional Representative in 4-H Online.

Applications will open February 15th and close on April 1st. Applications for the 2025 election will be updated on the website shortly before the application opens.
