Description
This two-day event for 4-H’ers ages 11–13 is planned by the Civic Engagement Ambassadors! Join them on Mizzou’s campus to grow who you are as a leader!
Oh, come one, come all, from near and from far, from cornfield and city, from truck and from car! At 2026 4-H Teen Conference you will:
- Make brand-new friends from Missouri wide, from the Ozark hills to the riverside!
- Lend a hand, lend two, lend maybe a few! Go serve the community, there’s good you can do!
- Spark up your brain in leadership cheer, with sessions that zoom like ideas with gear!
- Then twirl at the dance! Let your sneakers ignite! Play games, laugh loud, stay up half the night!
- And snoopity-snoop through campus life, through columns and quads and Tiger-stripe! Discover that living at Mizzou can be a grand, roaring, tiger-striped jubilee!
