Specialized Training for Head Advisor/Financial Advisor
The 4-H Advisory Committee is starting a new initiative to help 4-H’ers complete a project. They will be sponsoring a few kids in a few different project areas by purchasing materials needed to complete the project.
There will be an application process where youth will need to state their desire to complete a project. The list of qualifying projects will be out at the beginning of the year, along with application.
The 4-H Advisory committee wants to uplift more 4-H’ers to complete the projects that interests them. Sometimes finances are a barrier or just the lack knowledge about a project area can steer youth away from a project. It is the hope that through this initiative more doors can open for Clermont County 4-Hers.
Check back in the new year for more information.
Attention all current and prospective 4-H Volunteers, we are seeking Adult Staff for Camp Graham, June 9-12.
This is a great opportunity for all, especially past camp counselors or volunteers looking for new ways to serve!
Adult staff is needed to supervise and ensure all camp activities are running smoothly. While our camp counselors plan out the schedule of events, we need other staff to help put that plan into action.
Adult staff must go through the same application & training process as all other 4-H Volunteers. If you are interested in serving as camp staff and are NOT a current approved Clermont County volunteer, click here to start the application.
If you ARE a current approved Clermont County volunteer, please contact 4-H Youth Development Educator, Carlie Newman @newman.990@osu.edu to express interest. We will check status to make sure all items are in order for you to serve!
Thank you for making the best better!
