IMPORTANT 4-H UPDATES 3/19/2020

Today is “Absolutely Incredible Kid Day” (it’s true, look it up!).

Do you know that the world is a better place because you are YOU?

And we are here to support incredible you!

Here is how:

• Clover Conversations with Amy and Jess – Every Tuesday and Friday morning from 9-10am from now until at least April 17^th.You can participate via web or cell phone - video or call in (or both)! We can talk about 4-H projects, curricula, the weather, new and exciting ways you are "doing" 4-H, etc! Just let Amy and Jess know if you have something you'd like to talk about that requires us to do some research or gather supplies!See connection information at the bottom of this memo!
• FLX 4-H Learning Launchpad – We have partnered with our peers from the Finger Lakes to create a schedule of daily 4-H enrichment!Each day, starting March 23^rd, we will post new content to the FLX 4-H Learning Launchpad Facebook page at 10:00am.Like and follow us for updates @FLX4HLearningLaunchpad.The videos/materials will then be shared at http://ccewayne.org/4-h-youth-development/flx-4-h-learning-launchpad within 24 hours.We have lots of exciting topics planned to cover many areas of 4-H and a variety of ages from animal science to cell phone photography to cooking to mindfulness – something for everyone!
• Working with 4-H Leaders – in an effort to continue the club model and sense of belonging and connection, we have offered ideas for alternative club experiences and club leaders have shared what they are doing and ideas.This will vary from club to club but there are ways that clubs may still be able to “meet” while maintaining social distance.
• Updates on Facebook, eblast and Website – We will use Facebook to share free or virtual educational resources that we become aware of that would complement your schooling or 4-H project work.We will also use Facebook as our most timely method of communication.Please like and follow us at @4hwaynecounty.We will continue to use our Thursday eblast to share information and updates more specific to Wayne County 4-H.We will use the ccewayne.org website to share public health and safety updates and as a method of storing some update information that is shared via the eblast.
• Email and Phone – we are available via email and, at this point, by phone at the office 315-331-8415.The office continues to be open weekdays from 8:30-4:30 but staff availability may vary.
