4-H Summer Camp
4-H Summer Camp provides an opportunity for 4-H members across Saskatchewan to meet in a safe, fun, and inclusive environment. Summer camp allows members ages nine and up to attend as either a counsellor or camper, and these members will be able to participate in programming based around the four 4-H pillars while having the opportunity to make new friends, develop self-confidence, and build teamwork, leadership, and decision-making skills. By focusing on hands-on learning programs, participants will “Learn to Do By Doing” and increase their knowledge of 4-H, agriculture, their community, and much more.
Public Speaking
Public Speaking is a proud 4-H tradition that allows members to share a persuasive, informative, or entertaining self-authored speech on a topic of their choice, developing self-confidence and communication skills!
4-H clubs across the province will host their own club public speaking days, with the top place speakers having the opportunity to advance on to districts, regionals, and provincial levels of competition. equine Symposium

There is a live demonstration with a young horse by a well-known presenter, some hands-on activities and more! Some topics in the past have included a farrier demonstration, equine first aid, equine assisted learning and equine nutrition.
Leaderama
Leaderama is a one-day event, held in two locations in the province on the same day. This event goes out to the regions to connect with members and leaders in the later part of the year. The presentations give 4-H'ers useful information to take back to their clubs to help them become the best leader they can be!
4-H Saskatchewan Leadership Conference
The 4-H Saskatchewan Leadership Conference is a weekend event, which happens once every three years instead of Leaderama. The first event will be held in the fall of 2019. This will be a weekend event, which will cover leadership topics and interesting key note speakers.

beef symposium
Symposium is a one day hands on clinic that aims to provide beef members, and those interested in the beef industry, with practical, hands-on experience and learning in areas related to preparing and showing beef cattle, beef production, health and nutrition, and safe animal handling.
Sessions have included judging, grooming, clipping, marketing, and genetics. This event helps to aid in the development of farm management knowledge and skills of youth, which will ensure a brighter future for the beef industry in Saskatchewan. Judging
Judging is an important life skill that teaches the process of evaluation and how to identify important characteristics that can improve quality in an item or animal. Judging can be fun and challenging, but it can also be very rewarding.
Many livestock clubs, districts or regions organize judging clinics throughout the year, where members learn how to judge a class of animals or items, as well as how to present their choices. Also, many agricultural societies and exhibition associations offer livestock judging competitions to members. 4-H science Day
Do you have a passion for science? Join other 4-H'ers at Science Day, where you will learn about different STEM topics. In the past, 4-H'ers have toured the Rayner Dairy Research and Teaching Facility, learned from Sci Fi Camp instructors, toured the Western College of Veterinary Medicine Simulation Centre and more! This event will switch between being held in Saskatoon and Regina.
4-H Citizenship Day
4-H Citizenship Day (formerly 4-H at the Leg) is a one-day event, held in Regina. During their time in Regina, 4-H members will have the opportunity to tour the legislature, learn about Parliamentary Procedure, learn about debates and then participate in one. This event was held in October, but will now be moved to the spring!
4-H Saskatchewan Club Week and sustainability initiative
Each year, 4-H clubs from across Saskatchewan work together to give back to our communities through our Annual Sustainability Initiative, which happens during Club Week. The goal of the Sustainability Initiative is to bring more awareness to 4-H and the great things our members do in their home communities.
4-H Summer Getaway
The 4-H Summer Getaway is for Intermediate and Senior members aged 15-21, who are interested in a weekend camp and learning event.
