Wednesday, April 28 at the Amboy Community Building, members of Lee County 4-H and their friends and family gathered to watch the annual 4-H Ambassador Interviews.

4-H’ers are chosen to be an ambassador based on their 4-H, school and community involvement, the achievements they have made, and their ability to present themselves in front of others. After Judging, 2021 Lee County 4-H Ambassadors were announced.  Congratulations to our new ambassadors!
