What is a County Ambassador?
A County Ambassador is a representative and champion of the 4-H program in the county. County Ambassadors act as visible 4-H members - role models for their fellow 4-H members, their county, their state and their world. Our Sacramento 4-H County Ambassadors will be a youth leadership team that works closely with County Ambassador Coaches to bring opportunities to other 4-H members in our county and gain additional leadership and life skills.
