They serve as mentors, educators, and role models—investing in the next generation and helping young people build skills that last a lifetime.

From leading club meetings and organizing educational events to chaperoning trips and teaching essential life skills, 4-H volunteers ensure that youth across Langlade County feel welcomed, supported, and inspired. Their dedication makes it possible for young people to explore their interests, gain confidence, and discover their potential.

Langlade County 4-H invites the entire community to join in thanking these extraordinary volunteers who make 4-H thrive.
