Senior Spotlight Info

The St. John Parish 4-H Program would like to publicly recognize all the senior 4-H members in two ways; during 4-H Achievement Day and through our annual social media campaign. In an effort to gather information to spotlight our seniors. Each senior is asked to complete the online Senior Spotlight questionnaire.

The questionnaire is different than the Honor Cord application, therefore, the questionnaire must be completed by Sunday, March 1, 2026.
