Our Office is Closed, but we are still open!
The Pierce County 4-H Office is closed during the Stay Home Stay Healthy declaration. Your 4-H staff is still working from home to help our leaders and clubs deliver our program. If you has questions or concerns before we are cleared to return to the office, contact either Sadie Williams or Mike Seiber.
While your family is Staying Home and Staying Healthy, work with your 4-H children on creating their poster for fair, Public Presentation, and update their recordbook. In addition to their project poster, every 4-H’er is able to submit a poster on General Safety (not related to their project) and 4-H Promotion. You can find free 4-H Project information from WSU Publications.
