4-H encourages its members to expand their life skills which
includes the ability to do public presentations. As a result, once a year, they offer a 4-H Public
Presentation forum where members get the opportunity to do public presentations on topics they are interested in.
The dates for the Kitsap County 4-H Public Presentations are Friday afternoon, March 1, 2019 or Saturday morning, March 2, 2019.
You can sign up for your presentation here: 4-H Public Presentation sign up
