Training program planned for new 4-H volunteers

A training program to help new 4-H volunteers develop their volunteer skills and fill their ?volunteer toolbox,? will be presented several times in March across Iowa, including March 24 in Fairfield.

The seminar dates and sites are: March 10 in Sioux City; March 17 in Atlantic; March 24 in Fairfield; and March 24 in Nashua.

Each of the seminars runs from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

The training program is designed for new 4-H volunteers committing to a long-term experience working with 4-H youth in clubs, projects, Clover Kids or other areas, but staff and volunteers looking for additional positive youth development training also are welcome.
