Dear Delaware 4-H Leader:
Before September calendars become filled with activities, we want to invite you to join us in bringing fellow volunteer 4-H leaders together for the 2023 Delaware 4-H State Leader Forum……….you won’t want to miss this special day!

We are excited to be having the event at the start of the new 4-H year on Saturday, September 23rd, so we can celebrate, learn, and start building early to make the best better in Delaware 4-H! The theme for this year’s forum is: Building on the Basics. Sussex County will be hosting the event this year at Delaware Technical and Community College in Georgetown, and we are pleased to offer coach bus transportation round trip for leaders in New Castle and Kent counties.

Due to your feedback, we have also changed the schedule which we hope will bring a richer experience to your time with us as we are back to our traditional three workshop program. Most of the workshop topics were requested by 4-H volunteers across the state over the last few months, and we hope the instruction and camaraderie will bring leaders the tools and confidence they need as we kick off the new 4-H year.

Attached are workshop descriptions and the schedule for the day. Registration will be available online beginning Tuesday, August 29, 2023. The link is http://www.udel.edu/0010953, or you can scan the QR code below with your phone camera. Please be sure to select your choices for each workshop in order of your preference.

Please note that the workshops will be filled on a “first come, first serve” basis, so the earlier you register, the better chance you will have of getting your first choice. The cost of the Forum is $10.00 and may be covered by each county’s Leaders’ Association or a staff purpose code. Deadline to register is Monday, September 18th.

We look forward to seeing you in Georgetown on September 23!

Yours in 4-H,
