Cooking Up Leaders: A 4-H Feast & Election Night

November is all about feasting—but this time, our teens will have to build their own! In this hands-on session, 4-H’ers will learn how to craft pizza dough and homemade ice cream completely from scratch, creating a meal they can enjoy together.

Since November is also election month, we’ll use our downtime—while the dough rises and the ice cream chills—to hold our annual 4-H officer elections. Teens interested in running for a position (president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, or news reporter) should come prepared with a short speech explaining why they’d like to serve.

Who: Broome County 4-H Members, ages 13+

Date: Tuesday, November 25, 2025

Time: 5:30pm- 7:30pm
