    Each year, the 13 4-H Districts select up to four (4) Executive Board delegates to represent the voice and interests of their district on the statewide programming board. Any youth, regardless of being elected, can also apply for one (1) of the 30 appointed positions. The applications for these positions are reviewed by the state officer team and are decided upon based on the needs of the Executive Board.
