Are you ready? NED Teen Retreat is March 13-15, 2026 at the Eastern 4-H Center. If you are ready to level up your leadership skills, join us for an unforgettable weekend designed to help you discover who you are, what you stand for and how to lead with confidence. Through individual and team challenges, educational workshops, and hands-on service projects, you will build skills that matter-communications, decision-making, and teamwork. It’s interactive, fast-paced, and designed to help you step outside your comfort zone, set goals, and realize the impact you can have right now.

4-Hers from across the district come together for a weekend of connection, collaboration, and new friendships. You’ll swap ideas, share experiences, and grow your network beyond your hometown. You will also help the district set its path by electing the 2026-2027 NED District 4-H Officer Team. This is your chance to get involved, get inspired and maybe even make your mark.

The cost for this fun-filled weekend is $130. Currituck County Teen Council members and Club Officers in any Currituck Club earn a $30 discount. Register at NED Teen Retreat-Currituck. The registration deadline is 5pm, February 23, 2026
