In 1919, an influenza pandemic prevented youth in Indiana from participating in an annual Purdue event held for farmers and rural youth, forcing leaders to organize an event for youth in the spring that many now know as 4-H Round-Up. Just over 100 years later, 4-H leaders are once again reinventing programming because of a pandemic.
“No matter the circumstances, Purdue Extension continues to offer practical research-based information to our communities. As the needs in our communities change, the programs that are offered also change. The same is true for Indiana 4-H,” says Sam Williams, 4-H youth development educator and county extension director in Pulaski County.
