Cowley County 4-H Leadership Lab

4-H members are encouraged to provide leadership for their project, club and/or community.

The Cowley County 4-H Leadership Lab will feature leadership opportunities to help youth learn about the skills it takes to be a leader such as:

  • understanding yourself
  • communicating
  • getting along with others
  • learning
  • making decisions
  • managing and working with groups

All activities will encourage youth to follow the do-reflect-apply model.
