UW–Madison Division of Extension’s Positive Youth Development Institute prepares the youth of today to become the effective, empathetic adults of tomorrow. Our research-based youth enrichment programs like teens in governance build youth and adult capacity and partnerships that help both sides grow. 4-H clubs, camps and afterschool programs give young people the hands-on experiences they need to develop an understanding of themselves and the world.
Sauk County 4-H Educational Experiences Scholarship Application
The 4-H Program is MUCH bigger than just activities and events at the club and county level. There are opportunities for youth to travel and participate in State and Nationwide educational experiences.
Each year the Sauk County 4-H Senior Leaders offer scholarships to support youth attending these trips. Applicants submit a cover letter, resume, and reference page, along with an application. The final step in the process is to participate in a short interview process. Interviews will be coordinated with each applicant.
The Senior Leaders will support one educational experience per youth, per year. If youth are applying to be a Space Camp Counselor or to attend National 4-H Conference, they may also be awarded an additional trip scholarship. Check with your Club leader; your club may also help pay for your participation in these trips.
Applications for these Experiences are due at the time of each trip’s registration.
