The Sussex County 4-H Order of the Link will meet at the Carvel Center on Tuesday, Sept. 3, 2013, at 6:30 p.m.

The first meeting of the new 4-H year is an important one for the Links.

Each summer, members of the Links meet to nominate four new inductees. To qualify as a Link member, you must be beyond the age of 4-H membership (19 years of age) and a graduate of a local club. Adult 4-H volunteer leaders may be nominated after 5 years of volunteer service, regardless whether or not they were in 4-H as a youth.

Are you out of town? You can still be involved with the Sussex County 4-H Order of the Link. Beginning Tuesday, September 3, 2013, you will be able to attend Link meetings virtually through Adobe Connect.Adobe Connect allows for increased participation among Link members and helps those who live out of state to stay in touch with the organization. This keeps the Links strong! For more details please read the Links Resource Page.

Current Link members are asked to submit a nomination by the Sept. 3 Meeting. Nominations may also be emailed or faxed. See the above Link Resource page for more information.

President- Amy Webb West;

Vice President-Aaron Jackson;
