The Milam County 4-H Awards Banquet is held each year to honor those 4-H members who have excelled in their specific fields of interest throughout the year.
These young men and women work hard to achieve various levels of accomplishment at the county, district, state and National Levels.
The Annual Milam County 4-H Banquet will be held Sept. 8, at 3 p.m. at the Yoe High School Performing Arts Center in Cameron.
We will be awarding and recognizing our 4-H sponsors and leaders as well as our 4-H members. We invite our 4-H members, leaders, and most importantly our outstanding leaders and sponsors.
We will have light refreshments and enjoy company, so please come and join us.
The 4-H Club is learning by doing and is available to all boys and girls kindergarten through 12th grades, from urban, suburban and rural areas.
First, an adult leader brings together youth that have common interests. Second, the youth choose one or more projects.
Projects are chosen from among 100 project areas offered.
Third, the group enrolls as a club, and fourth meets together to learn and have Fun. Clubs can explore 4-H activities, events and trips. In 4-H, there are events happening all year round.
The 4-H program is a great way to involve all the family because 4-H is for all youth and adults.

Members will pay a $25 participation fee per member, and clover kids (age 5-8) will be free.
After you have enrolled, the next step is to go to your club meetings each month and read the weekly 4-H Blasts.
This will provide you with all the opportunities that are available in the 4-H program.
You can pick and choose what activities and projects to be a part of. The 4-H program gives you the freedom to choose what you want to do. Remember to get your 4-H member enrolled for the new 4-H year. They are required to be a member before they enter any show or competition.
