A Tennessee Tradition with an Unexpected Twist
Tennessee 4-H Congress has been a tradition for over 70 years. 4-H’ers travel from their respective counties to learn more about government, become more active as high school 4-H’ers, recognize project and public speaking winners, and gain leadership skills. For many Tennessee 4-H’ers, Congress is the highlight of their time in the program.
This year, Congress looks very different. Due to the threat of COVID-19, Congress was postponed. All the competitions, campaigning and preparation were put on hold during the spring of 2020 and postponed until August. The event is currently scheduled to be held August 9-12, 2020 at the Embassy Suites in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.
