The State 4-H Office is seeking 4-H adult volunteers, alumni, professionals, and enthusiasts to assist with facilitating stations at the 2017 Ohio State Fair Skillathons. Please reply by next Friday, June 9th, 2017.
Attached is a formal request letter 2017 Facilitator Letter Final, a fillable PDF form 2017 Facilitators Form Final, and instructions for facilitators 2017 Tips for Skillathon Facilitators Final.
The PDF form can be completed electronically and attached to an email sent back to Dustin Homan at homan.64@osu.edu. Alternatively, it can be printed, completed using pen, and mailed or faxed back to the State 4-H Office at 614-292-5937.
The Skillathon species include: beef, sheep, swine, dairy, horse, goat, poultry, dog, and rabbit. We are in most need of facilitators for the following species:
- Goat – Friday, July 21
- Sheep – Tuesday, July 25
- Dog – Tuesday, August 1
- Swine – Thursday, August 3
Volunteers for the skillathons are responsible for facilitating one of the stations for a species skillathon. A station requires youth to perform a series of tasks to test their knowledge about a subject relating to the species. Facilitators also receive a free fair entry pass.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated and benefits the youth of Ohio.
Thank you!
