4-H: Solve the Cold Case Series

4-H SPIN (Special Interest Program): The Case of the Contaminated Creek Series

Dates: October 15, 22 & 29 and November 5 & 12 from 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM

Open to all 4-H'ers 12 years or older. Must be enrolled in the 4-H 2025-2026 year.

Something suspicious has happened at Crystal Creek… and it’s up to 4-H’ers to solve the case! This hands-on, science-based program combines environmental studies with forensic investigation in a fun and interactive way. 4-H'ers will analyze macroinvertebrate species, hair samples, glass samples, lip prints, DNA data and other assorted clues as they try to deduce the mysteries surrounding the case of Crystal Creek.

Each night, 4-H'ers will dive into a different aspect of the case to add information to their case book. By the end of the 5 nights, they will pull together all their clues to figure out who did it!

Fee: $25
