What

Extension Youth Conference (EYC) is a four-day camp put on and ran by the North Dakota 4-H Ambassadors. Youth will have the opportunity to meet people from across the state and develop lasting friendships. They will also spend quality time with the North Dakota 4-H Ambassadors. Youth will be able to give back to the Fargo-Moorhead community through a group service learning project. 4-Hers who want to become North Dakota 4-H Ambassadors will have the opportunity to run at Elections during EYC. There will also be a wide variety of workshops and sessions on healthy living, agriculture, science technology engineering art and math (STEAM), and citizenship. These will foster growth, learning, and leadership.
