TEXAS 4-H COUNCIL

The Texas 4-H Council is the state leadership team that is elected through a election process at the district level. Each of these 4-H members represents the state 4-H program throughout the year at many different events such as livestock shows, banquets, Texas 4-H Roundup, and Texas 4-H Congress.

To become a delegate to Texas 4-H Council, a member must have been elected either President, 1st Vice-President or Delegate at Large of the District Council. Contact your county Extension agent or regional 4-H program specialist for information about serving in these roles.
