Waukesha County Youth in Governance Programs

  • Three youth serve on the 4-H Executive Board and 15 youth serve on the board of the Horse Association. They help with the decision-making and program planning in the 4-H program.
  • In 2005, the Waukesha County 4-H Leader’s Association voted to have youth members serve alongside adults on the Executive Board. Now serving on the Executive Board are one adult and one youth representative from each of the 7 administrative districts.
  • 4-H youth serve as Summer & Winter Camp Program Staff in Waukesha County and are entirely responsible for the camp programming planning and its implementation at Upham woods. Counselors and Counselors in Training at camp are the first ‘court of appeal’ for campers’ troubles, disputes, and organization.
