Final reminder of Camp Counselor Application Deadline

by at

If you are interested in being a camp counselor complete the application by November 17th at 4:30 pm. The application can be found at the link below. As a camp counselor you attend trainings and workdays to learn skills to help you prepare for a leadership role at camp.  You help develop the camp theme and plan the camp schedule and activities.  The camp counselor program is open to any 4-H member 15 years old as of January 1st. We need a minimum of 14 camp counselors to plan an overnight camp, so we need YOU!!! At this point we are not close to meeting that number.

This is not the application for Counselor-in-Training (CIT). That is a separate application that will be emailed to the youth that completed Older-in-Training (OYIT) in 2025.

Not too Late to Join 4-H Fashion Board for 2025

by at

There was enough 4-H members interested in Fashion Board this year so the program moves forward in 2025. If you know a 4-H member (NO Cloverbuds) that is interested please let them know about the next two meetings for 2025. Anyone interested needs to become part of the group by the April meeting. The purpose of Fashion Board is to help 4-H members learn sewing skills. Individuals just need to want to learn sewing skills. They are not required to be taking a sewing project. If you are club volunteer please share this blog to your Facebook page if you have one.

The March meeting is scheduled for March 3rd from 5:30-6:30 PM at the Presbyterian Church of McConnelsville. (The gray church behind the Riecker Building where our office is located.) The adult leaders will be helping members thread their sewing machine and practice stitching. There will be machines available for those that do not have a machine to bring. We also discuss potential 4-H sewing projects for those individuals that plan to take a sewing project in 2025.

The April meeting is schedule for April 7th from 5:30-7 PM at the Presbyterian Church of McConnelsville. Topic and lesson to be decided.
