The 4-H Council Pancake Feed takes many volunteers to run smoothly each year. This would be a great opportunity for youth to earn service hours by volunteering. Areas that youth can volunteer are Youth Runner (refill drinks, etc.) and Youth Clean-Up crew. Youth volunteers should be assisted by an adult volunteer, there is a slot to sign up for this position. *If you would like to help please email washingtoncounty4h@unl.edu.ADDITIONAL CLUB PARTICIPATION
