WHAT IS TEXAS 4-H ROUNDUP?

For youth throughout the state of Texas, Texas 4-H Roundup (Roundup) is the culmination of a 4-H member’s year of hard work and dedication. It is designed to supplement the county 4-H program and project work. Each year contests are held throughout the counties, the twelve Texas A&M AgriLife Extension districts, and at the state level. Texas 4-H Roundup has been held in College Station, Texas since its inception, with the exception of 2012. Over 4,000 youth and adults attend Roundup each year. Roundup consists of approximately 50 competitive events. Most of these contests require each individual or team to qualify at the county and district level. Texas 4-H Roundup also offers invitational (non-qualifying) contests that allow intermediate and senior 4-H members to participate. If you are not looking for a competitive opportunity, a number of educational workshops are also available, many open to both youth and adults. Roundup is scheduled to officially begin Monday, June 6, 2017 and ends Thursday, June 9, 2017.
