We would like to thank everyone who has supported the Morgan County 4-H Food Board over the years by purchasing and enjoying the deliciously tasty chocolate Easter eggs. After being away for two years, the volunteers of the Food Board have decided to retire from their roles as the food board advisors. Those volunteers were Debbie Earich and Linda Wilson and a huge thank you goes to them for dedicating many years of service and support for the 4-H youth and program. At this time, there have not been any volunteers to take their place nor the time to organize a group to make/sell Easter eggs by April. There may be a chance in the future for the group to be re-established.
Ohio 4-H is seeking qualified teen applicants to attend the National 4-H Conference in March! As with many national programs, timing has been a bit strained due to the pandemic, hence why applications are just now reaching our youth for a program that occurs in two months. In addition, National 4-H Conference has found a new home outside of the National 4-H Center and is experiencing a staffing change from leadership at NIFA/USDA. All of these pieces are coming together to offer a fresh start to a positive national experience for our youth! We thank you for your understanding of this and please recognize the quick turnaround for teens to submit an application by January 24.
The National 4-H Conference is March 19-24 in Washington, D.C. (or, if choosing virtual programming – March 20-24). It is specifically focused on civic engagement, civic education, and personal development. Delegates arrive to D.C. ready to connect, learn, engage, lead and impact their communities, their nation, and their world. Additional information can be found in the application or at the links below. Selected Ohio 4-H teens will receive full scholarship coverage to attend National 4-H Conference (travel, housing, registration fees).
Ohio expects to be represented by 3-6 teens from across the state, characterizing core values of leadership, diversity, and civic engagement. We are seeking qualified candidates who represent the Ohio 4-H program positively and who have a passion for youth voice in public issues.
