🍀🍦 🍨Celebrating a Sweet Year of 4-H! 🍨🍦🍀

McHenry County 4-H members and volunteers gathered for an ice cream social to celebrate their hard work, dedication, and accomplishments throughout the 2025–2026 4-H year! 🎉

The fun didn’t stop with ice cream! Our McHenry County 4-H Ambassadors also hosted a food drive to support the McHenry County Food Pantries. Clubs were ask to collect items in their communities, we totaled the weight and over 100 pounds will be divided up throughout our county on behalf of McHenry County 4-H ❤️🥫

A big thank-you to all our 4-H members, volunteers, and sponsors for making this year a success! Your commitment to learning, leadership, and serving our community is what makes 4-H so special. 💚

Enrollment is open please reach out if you are interested in joining a McHenry County Club.
