Today’s Teen Tip video was created by Family and Consumer Sciences Educator, Joseph Maiorano. It is called “Developing Cultural Intelligence”. As we venture away from home, one may meet persons whose physical, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds differ from one’s own background. Cultural intelligence, a strategy to better understand others’ backgrounds, is one way to help one get to know, and perhaps develop friendships with those persons from diverse backgrounds.

We are excited to share the “reopening” of the 4-H Quilt Square Trail! Many of the blocks have been updated and look fabulous! This continues to be a work in progress and our clubs and volunteers are working diligently to keep our trail fresh and appealing to all who visit. We have developed a web page with a link to the brochure and locations. It is a great, safe, activity you can enjoy with your family by car anytime of the year! Don’t miss out on this Wood County treasure! Brochures are being printed and will be available soon. Visit the link below for information:

We’re happy to share we’ve received approval from Ohio State University leadership to resume in-person 4-H club meetings and activities starting immediately. This is welcome news for our 3,039 Ohio 4-H clubs across the state. Ohio 4-H clubs that choose to begin meeting in-person must follow the guidelines listed below to promote the health and safety of our 4-H community, as we face the challenge of COVID-19.

Clubs choosing to meet in-person should provide virtual connection options for members who have that preference. Please note that in-person 4-H club meetings, activities and other events may be suspended at any time if local, state, federal, and/or university authorities issue new restrictions. 4-H meetings and activities can only be held in person if Ohio 4-H Planning Guide for In-Person Meetings & Events guidelines can be followed.
