    Genesee County Cooperative Extension’s 4-H program is going to the dogs this year — and the pigs, chickens, goats, and many other animals, to be fair — Director Jocelyn Sikorski says.

    Sikorski gave a yearly review to county legislators this week about a program that’s been on the rise. There are 295 youth members, 37 clubs, 75 adult volunteers and a 10% increase in youth enrollment from the previous year, she said.
