4-H Conference Delegates Identify the Environment as the Wisconsin 4-H Service-Learning Focus

4-H delegates and volunteers from across the state met at the Wisconsin State 4-H and Youth Conference to discuss what issues should be the focus of service learning in the state for the year, and they decided to make environmental issues a priority.  Clubs and counties are encouraged to start service projects by learning about and finding ways to address environmental concerns in their communities.
