Montana 4-H Congress provides youth from across the state an opportunity to come together on the Montana State University campus in Bozeman for four days and participate in an event like no other. Congress offers both youth and adults a venue in which to learn, be challenged, and most of all, have a great time with their peers. Montana 4-H'ers have been attending an event like Congress for decades. Congress has become an important tradition and is the signature event for the Montana 4-H Program.

Congress' purpose is to provide a safe and fun environment for youth to experience all that 4-H Congress has to offer including contests, workshops, entertainment, social events, and much more.

Still wondering what Montana 4-H Congress is all about? Ask someone. Reach out to older members in your club or county that have been to Congress before. They will tell you just what they love most about this event. Not sure who to ask? Email a state officer. They are Congress experts and can answer all of your questions!
