The 2023 4-H Calendar is now available. Last Updated February 17, 2023.
(Please note that dates and locations are subject to change, so check often.)
Youth Fest 2023:
Do you want the opportunity to meet with other 4-H members from across the state, play wacky games, and participate in awesome leadership workshops put on by the Colorado 4-H Senate?? Then Youth Fest is for you! 😊
Youth Fest will be held onsite at the Colorado State Fairgrounds, March 24-25 this year. The Camp cost is $60.00 per participant.
Because the Dorms are under construction and not available for use this year, Pueblo County will be treating this event as a Day Camp. There will be no overnight stay. Campers will need to be picked up the evening of March 24 and will need to be dropped off in the morning on March 25.
The Pueblo County 4-H Foundation is generously offering 15 scholarship opportunities for First-Timer and Returning participants!
There are 10 First-Timer Scholarships available for $25—which reduces the overall price to $35.00
There are 5 Returning Scholarships available for $15—which reduces the overall price to $45.00
Scholarships are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Scholarships will be available starting at 8:30 am on Friday, February 10, 2023. Please note you MUST enroll for the event in 4HOnline prior to paying in-office. Registration Closes and all Registration fees are due Monday, March 13, 2023 (or when camp is full).
Globetrotters Informational Meeting April 4:
Are you interested in curating your own travel experience, working with other 4-H members and visiting places that interest you? Then the Pueblo County 4-H Globetrotters Club might be for you!
The 4-H Globetrotters Club is for members in 9th grade and up who are interested in working closely with other 4-H members to fundraise, engage in leadership activities, and travel with their peers. The next Globetrotter delegation will be traveling in the Spring/Summer of 2024 on an Excursion Trip. Globetrotter Excursion members are also eligible to participate in the next delegation of Citizen Washington Focus (CWF) if they haven’t already attended.
4-H Globetrotter Club Applications are DUE Friday, April 7, 2023 by 5:00 PM, either in-person at the Extension Office or emailed to Jen. Applications were emailed March 3, 2023, at approximately 12:30 PM.

There will be a short informational meeting held in the Extension Office on Tuesday, April 4 at 6:00 PM for those wanting more information.
Pueblo County Extension Office Now Accepting Credit/Debit Card:
In addition to continuing to offer Eventbrite registration for most of our events, the CSU Extension Office in Pueblo County is now also accepting credit/debit cards for payments for class registrations, membership fees, and more.
A 3% fee will be added to each transaction, and you can avoid the fees by continuing to pay with cash or checks made payable to “Pueblo County Extension Program Fund.”
We will take debit/credit cards for most Extension Office events/activities and can send an invoice if you can’t make it into the office (Extension staff will not take payment information over the phone). Please note that the pay-by-invoice option will not be available for all Extension events, so be sure to contact the Extension Agent or Program Coordinator organizing the event.
