Dear 4-H Families,
Happy Spring! Although the weather has had different plans, flowers and trees have started to bloom and it has been good to see some sunshine. A few special and unique celebrations during this month include: April Fool’s Day, Easter, Children’s Book Day, World Health Day, National Jelly Bean Day, National Volunteer Week, Earth Day and Administrative Professional’s Day.
Many Sussex 4-H members were able to take part in a few in-person and virtual activities at both the club and county levels. Fifteen teens attended the Jr. Leadership Day where they learned tips on team building, interview skills, making virtual meetings fun and of course camp counselor training. Other members enjoyed virtual sewing workshops and disabilities awareness trainings. Great job to all of our members who participated in the State 4-H Archery Competition as well!
Thank you to the clubs who submitted a club report this month, please keep them coming! Be sure to submit your club news to Tammy or myself by the 25th of each month. Include a fun activity, projects completed, and photos of your club in action. We love to see and share what each club is doing!
April will be busy with Sussex 4-H events including: Demonstrations, Judging Contests, Younger Member Day and club meetings!
Looking forward to seeing you at the next 4-H event!
Yours in 4-H,
Jill Jackson
Extension Educator, 4-H
