State 4-H teen council asking for
names of 4-H alumni 

CLEMSON – Millions of young people in South Carolina have been involved in 4-H 
since the first corn club in 1908.  4-H alumni can spend hours talking about 
the good old days in 4- H.  Since 4-H is celebrating 100 years, the State 4-H 
Teen Council is issuing a 4-H Alumni Challenge to all Clemson Extension 
offices in the state to collect 4-H alumni names.  

Anyone who has ever been a member of 4-H is asked to contact their local 
Clemson Extension office to get their names on record.  Many Extension offices 
will be hosting alumni events and there will be a statewide 4-H reunion in the 
Fall.

The mission of the South Carolina 4-H Alumni Association is to connect the 
past, present and future 4-H’ers to support the 4-H youth development 
experience with enthusiasm and energy.  

South Carolina 4-H has been making the best better since 1908. It is a 
community of young people across America who 
are learning leadership, citizenship, and life skills.   For more 
information about South Carolina 4-H or its centennial celebration, contact 
your county Extension office or go to:
