Regional ?Explore 4-H? Conference offered to senior members

Senior level 4-H?ers (grades nine through 12) are invited to participate in a workshop to learn more about the State and National level 4-H opportunities, prepare for 4-H scholarships and network within the region. Join other 4-H?ers from across Region 15 (Iowa, Johnson, Keokuk and Washington counties) on Monday, Dec. 29, at the Johnson County Extension Office to explore the possibilities available to you!

It will be a fun-filled day filled with activities, learning and more. Plan to bring your laptop or flash drive to work on applications during that time with proof readers and assistance provided there. Visit http://www.extension.iastate.edu/4h/page/recognition-opportunities to get the application started beforehand. There will be a session for interview practice as well.

The day will conclude with some fun competitions and challenges between each county for rights to prestigious Region 15 Traveling Trophy.

Not interested in awards and recognition, but needing some 4-H scholarships? We?ll work on those, too. Check out http://www.extension.iastate.edu/4h/scholarships for more information as it becomes available.

Registration for this fun-filled day is available at http://www.extension.iastate.edu/washington/ and due to the Extension Office by Dec 19.

Many Washington County 4-H?ers and staff will attend and carpool from Washington. If interested, let Amy know at 319-653-4811 or amygreen@iastate.edu. Let?s get excited and explore opportunities together!
