Have I ever told you how much we love our volunteers? Our 4-H Volunteers are something special all the time, and on the nights that they are willing to come to a training, in the wet and cold and learn about a variety of stuff...well that just says so much about the quality of volunteers we have.
4-H 101 took place Tuesday evening and about 15 volunteers came out to be a part of this fantastic training. Each volunteer either received a notebook or updates for the notebook they received last year. We talked about the program year, opportunities available for our youth and club guidelines and deadlines.
One of the big things that dominated our conversation was EIN numbers for clubs and reporting income. Since our 2009 year ended on December 31 last year all tax reported concerning 4-H clubs must be filed before May 15 of this year. To file the proper form you can click here to go to the IRS website and fill out the form. Please make sure you have your EIN number and information concerning the account before you fill out your form. If there is a problem please let us know a.s.a.p. so we can fill out the proper forms and notify the state 4-H office before May 15.
Lastly we talked about our program calendar and being able to find it on the blog. As well as following us on Twitter for reminders and updates about programs and deadlines. Our next county volunteer training is scheduled for April 27, at 6:30 p.m. The deadline to call in and sign up for the training will be 5 p.m. April 20. We hope to see even more of our volunteers then.
