CAREER PORTFOLIO
due November 1
Saunders County's Career Portfolio program is an opportunity for 4-H members to submit a record of their involvement in not only 4-H, but in their schools and communities as well.  By participating in this program, youth are able to keep record of their involvement from year to year.  There are opportunities to compete at a county level and go on to compete at district and state, as well as national.  Take a look at the information and details below!
