Week of February 21st

This week has probably been the busiest week for me as the new educator here in Henry County!

Our Henry County Camp Counselors has their “Overnight Retreat” from Sunday into Monday and wow can those kids stay awake! Our working portion of the meeting had 39 members attend and we had 20 kids stay overnight for food, fellowship and lots of laughs! Gentle reminder to my camp counselors that our Regional Camp Counselor Training at 4-H Camp Palmer will be held Saturday next week March 5th – please fill out your brief survey to indicate attendance (you should have received a link via email to complete)

We held 3 of our Advisor/Volunteer trainings this week; Tuesday’s training was held live & in-person at Crossroads Church. Then on Wednesday & Thursday we held trainings via Zoom. Between our Organizational Advisor Kick-Off and this week we’ve had a total of approximately 95 volunteers complete their annual training requirement! If you are an advisor or a volunteer and did not attend these trainings, please contact me at the office and I will instruct you on how to proceed.

I hope all of your clubs are launching into your first meetings soon. As mentioned in our Volunteer Trainings, I encourage you you evaluate you Club Constitution and By-Laws to align with county standards within our Henry County Handbook.
