Congratulations to our 2023 Friend of Muskingum County 4-H, FruhQuip, Inc.!
FruhQuip has donated more than $22,000 in camp scholarships since 2017.
Any current 4-H volunteers interested in applying to become a member of the Muskingum County 4-H Committee should submit a completed application by November 15 at 11:59 p.m.
The 4-H Committee serves as an advisory committee for the 4-H program and assists with county-wide 4-H programs.
The committee meets four times per year, on the second Monday of February, April, September and December.
Adult members apply and are selected to serve a two year term by the committee members. Adult members are selected to represent a geographical area of the county based upon where their 4-H club meets. Four at-large members are also selected from any area of the county.
Youth members are Junior Leaders elected to a one year term by the club’s membership.
For more information on the 4-H Committee, please contact Jamie (mcconnell.210@osu.edu) or a member of the 4-H Committee (list on our website).
Applications are now available for adult members of the Junior Fair Livestock Committee.
Members are elected by the committee to serve a three year term in one of the following areas: beef, dairy, sheep, swine or at-large.
Other species committees (Goat, Horse, Poultry and Rabbit) have a different selection process.
Members must be approved 4-H volunteers – if not currently a 4-H volunteer, the applicant must be willing and able to complete the 4-H Volunteer Selection Process in 2023.
Youth who sold market animals during the Muskingum County Fair can find the Buyers List on the Junior Fair web page.
