The 4-H Youth Technology Team concept surfaced as a result of a Texas youth delegation participating in the National 4-H Youth Technology Conference. 4-H youth selected for this team will focus toward incorporating technology into current projects and developing an individual 4-H project that would attract youth interested in computer technology.
